1 CH10: Correlation and Regression CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 410
2 Section 10-1: Paired Data and Scatter Plots Many times we are interested in determining if there is a relationship between two variables. To do this we can collect data consisting of two measurements that are paired with each other. One variable will be the independent variable, x (explanatory), and the second the dependent variable, y (response). Examples: height and weight of individuals, maximum speed limit of each state versus number of car crash deaths per capita CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 411
3 Once we ve collected all the pairs of data listed as (x, y) we can draw a graph to represent the data. This graph is called a scatter plot. A scatter plot is a graph of ordered pairs of data values that is used to determine if a relationship exists between the two variables. Drawing a scatter plot: Step 1: Draw and label the x and y axes Step 2: Plot the points for pairs of data CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 412
4 Example: Create a scatter plot for the following data set Height Hand span How would you describe the above relationship? CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 413
5 Analyzing the Scatter Plot A positive linear relationship exists when the points fall approximately in an ascending straight line and both x and y values increase at the same time. As the values for the x variable increase the values for the y variable increase CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 414
6 A negative linear relationship exists when the points fall approximately in a descending straight line from left to right. As the values for the x variable increase the values for the y variable decrease CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 415
7 A nonlinear relationship exists when the points fall in a curved line. The relationship is then described by the nature of the curve (e.g. quadratic, cubic, exponential, etc). CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 416
8 No relationship exists when there is no discernable pattern of the points. CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 417
9 How Can We Summarize Strength of Association? When the data points follow roughly a straight line trend, the variables are said to have an approximately linear relationship. If we have a linear relationship we can use the correlation coefficient to help determine the strength of the association. CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 418
10 Correlation Coefficient Computed from the sample data, measures the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables. The symbol for the sample correlation coefficient is r, and the symbol for the population correlation coefficient is ρ. The correlation coefficient takes on values between -1 and +1. A positive value for r: A negative value for r: An r value close to +1 or -1 indicates An r value close to 0 indicates CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 419
11 CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 420
12 Calculating the correlation, r r n xy x y n x x n y y where n is the number of data pairs. You will not be required to compute r manually, but you will need to know how to calculate it using your calculator. CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 421
13 TI-83 and TI-84 Directions To compute the correlation, the diagnostic setting must be turned on. Press 2 nd, then 0, this takes you to the catalog. Scroll down to the DiagnosticOn entry and then press ENTER twice. You will only have to do this once! Computing correlation: Type your x variable into L1 and your y variable into L2. Press STAT, highlight CALC, and select LinReg(ax+b) (or press number 4). Type L1, L2 then press ENTER. CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 422
14 Determine the correlation coefficient for the height and hand span data. Height Hand span CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 423
15 At what point is r high enough to conclude that there is a significant linear relationship between two variables, or the value of r differs from zero due to chance? We can use a hypothesis test to determine the significance of r. See page We will not cover this hypothesis test. You should know that it is possible to test whether the relationship is statistically significant (i.e. r is far enough away from 0). CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 424
16 Correlation does not Imply Causation A correlation between x and y means that a linear relationship exists between the two variables (note that this should be verified with a scatter plot, because the correlation coefficient can always be computed no matter what the relationship between x and y is). A correlation between x and y, does not mean that x causes y. Example: beer sales and ice cream sales There is NO proof of causation WITHOUT manipulation (i.e., randomized experiment). CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 425
17 Lurking Variable is a variable, usually unobserved, that influences the association between the variables of primary interest. Example: What could the lurking variable be for the last example? CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 426
18 Confounding variable or confounder: A confounder is related to both the exposure of interest and the outcome, but is not on the causal pathway. (More commonly used term for a lurking variable) Z = confounder Y = outcome X = exposure of interest In the following, Z creates an association between X and Y; however, if Z was controlled for, this association would disappear. X Z Y X Z Y X Z Y CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 427
19 Is organic food the real cause of the increase in Autism? CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 428
20 Section 10-2: Regression Once we have discovered that a linear relationship exists, we can then determine the equation of the regression line, which is the data s line of best fit. The purpose of the regression line is to enable the researcher to make predictions based on the data. CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 429
21 CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 430
22 Line of Best Fit To find the line of best fit we try to the distance from each point to the regression the line. We need a line of best fit so that we can predict values of y from the values of x. Therefore the closer the points are to the line, the better the fit and the better the prediction. CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 431
23 Determination of the Regression Line Equation Recall from algebra that the equation of a line is usually given as y = mx+b where m is and b is. In statistics the equation of the regression line is written as y a bx where a is and b is. CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 432
24 Formulas for the Regression Line a y x 2 x x n x 2 2 xy b n xy x n x 2 y 2 x where a is the y intercept and b is the slope of the line. We can use the calculator to help us find the regression line without using these formulas. We will use the same process we did to find the correlation coefficient r. Note: Round a and b to 3 decimal places! CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 433
25 TI-83 and TI-84 Directions To compute the regression line equation, the diagnostic setting must be turned on. Press 2 nd, then 0, this takes you to the catalog. Scroll down to the DiagnosticOn entry and then press ENTER twice. You will only have to do this once! Computing the regression line equation: Type your x variable into L1 and your y variable into L2. Press STAT, highlight CALC, and select LinReg(ax+b) (or press number 4). Type L1, L2 then press ENTER. CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 434
26 y Notice the output will be for y=ax+b. So the a reported in calculator is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Example: Age and sick days Age, x Days, y Note: linear relationship confirmed by scatterplot CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 435 x
27 Find the equation of the regression line and the correlation coefficient. CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 436
28 Relationship between r and b If r is positive, then b will be positive (and vice versa) If r is negative, then b will be negative (and vice versa) If r is zero, then b will be zero (and vice versa). Predicting a Response Using the Regression Line To predict the value of a new response for some value of the explanatory variable, we simply plug that value of the explanatory variable into our regression equation. The resulting value is the predicted value. CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 437
29 Find the number of sick days predicted for someone who is 30 years old. Find the number of sick days predicted for someone who is 75 years old. CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 438
30 Extrapolation Is Dangerous! Extrapolation: Using a regression line to predict y values for x values outside the observed range of the data. CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 439
31 Example: Collect a sample of heights and weights from male children aged 0 to 5. What would happen if we predicted the height or weight of an adult male? Example: Suppose we give lab rats various levels of amphetamine and observe their subsequent caloric intake for the next hour. Let y = Caloric intake and x = Amphetamine dosage. Why is it a bad idea to extrapolate in this example? CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 440
32 Comical/sad example of extrapolation: If current trends continue, by 2606 the US diet will be 100 percent sugar. CH10: Correlation and Regression Santorico - Page 441
