coefficient. n. 1. (Mathematics) maths. a. a numerical or constant factor in an algebraic term: the coefficient of the term 3xyz is 3. b. the product of all the factors of a term excluding one or more specified variables: the coefficient of x in 3axyz is 3ayz.
The correlation coefficient is a measurement of association between two random variables. While its numerical calculation is straightforward, it is not readily applicable to non-parametric statistics. For example, in the data set survey, the exercise level (Exer) and smoking habit (Smoke) are qualitative attributes.
