This page will provide an introduction to understanding and using library call numbers. Each book in the library has a unique call number. A call number is like an address: it tells us where the book is located in the library.
Definition of Correlation: Correlation is a statistical technique that is used to measure and describe the STRENGTH and DIRECTION of the relationship between two variables. Correlation requires two scores from the SAME individuals.
Correlation derives from the Latin cor- 'together' and -relatio 'relation'ââthe word is all about things that go together. But beware: just because a study shows a correlation between two variables, it doesn't mean one necessarily causes the other. There is a significant correlation between going to high school and being a teenager, but that doesn't mean that going to high school causes you to be a teenager.
