Partial correlation
Used in a situation where three and four
variables involved.
Three variables such as age, height &
weight.
The correlation b/w height & weight can
be computed by keeping age
constant.
Denoted by “ r12.3 ”
QUESTION
From the following data, calculate the
correlation b/w variable 1 & 2 keeping
the 3rd constant.
r12 = 0.7 ; r13 = 0.6 ; r23 = 0.4
Solution :-
Multiple correlation
Dealing with situations that involve
three or more variables.
One dependent & rest are independent.
Dependent variable is always denoted
by X1 & others by X2, X3, X4, etc.
question
The following zero-order, correlation
coefficients are given-
r12 = 0.98 ; r13 = 0.44 & r23 = 0.54
