1 CORRELATION AND REGRESSION CORRELATION The correlation coefficient is a number, between -1 and +1, which measures the strength of the relationship between two sets of data. The closer the correlation coefficient is to +1 or -1 the stronger the relationship and the easier it is to predict one item by using the other. For example, there is a strong relationship between amount of daily sunshine and the sales of ice-cream so the correlation coefficient is close to 1. Positive and Negative correlation coefficient If the two sets of data are related in such a way that as one increases then so does the other, there is a positive correlation between them and the correlation coefficient will be +. The daily sunshine and sales of ice-cream have a positive correlation. If they are related so that as one increases the other decreases, then they have a negative correlation. For example, the amount of daily sunshine and the sales of rainwear would have a negative correlation. Strong Positive Correlation Strong Negative Correlation r = 0.8 r = -0.8 Correlation No correlation Perfect positive r = 0 r = +1 Perfect Negative Correlation r = -1 Perfect correlation is usually found only in science. In most other situations the correlation coefficient is a decimal r = nσxy ΣxΣy { } { nσx ( Σx) } nσy ( Σy) Walter Fleming Page 1 of 7
2 RANK CORRELATION This is another method of finding the correlation coefficient. With this method both sets of data must be ranked i.e. numbered in either ascending or descending order. Both sets must be ranked in the same way i.e. either both ascending or both descending. Then the difference between the rank is found by subtracting one from the other. This gives us d for the formula. Example 6Σd r = 1 nn ( 1) A group of 7 candidates are ranked in a written exam and in a practical exam. The following table gives the results: Candidate A B C D E F G Place in Written Place in Practical R1 R d d A B C D 4 4 E F G Σd n = 7 6 d r = nn ( 1) = 6(16) 1 1) = = 7(7 This indicates that there is only a fair correlation between the written exam results and the practical results. Walter Fleming Page of 7
3 Regression Regression analysis examines what the relationship between two sets of data is. It relates one set to the other by means of an equation, the Regression equation. This is the equation of a straight line. Regression assumes that the two sets of data lie in a straight line, known as the line of best fit or the Regression Line so the stronger the correlation the more reliable this equation is for forecasting. The equation is Y = a + bx where and b = nσxy ΣxΣy nσx ( Σx) Σy Σ a = b x n n To forecast, substitute in the X value given into the equation. The Coefficient of Determination This is found using the formula: (r.100)%. It gives the percentage of the variation in the dependent variable that is explained through one s knowledge of the variation in the independent variable. Walter Fleming Page 3 of 7
4 Example: The number of daily hours sunshine and the sales of ice-cream for a particular week is given in the following table: Hours of sunshine Icecream sales (000kg) Find the regression equation and use it to forecast the expected sales on a day in which the expected hours of sunshine is 7 hours. Procedure for calculating the Product moment Correlation Coefficient. 1. Arrange the to sets of data in columns, Col.1 is X, Col. is Y If the data are labelled X and Y, follow that, but if they are not, X is the data over which you have control, (i.e. the independent variable.) for example price is X since you can directly control them, and Sales is Y. If in doubt, take the top line as X and the second line as Y.. Form three more columns, Col. 3 for XY, the product of each pair, Col 4 for X squared, and Col 5 for Y squared. 3. Calculate the entries in each column. 4. Add up each column. This gives the Σs in the formula. N is the number of rows of data. 5. Insert the results into the formula and calculate. Be careful with the calculations; don't try to do too much at the one time. Walter Fleming Page 4 of 7
5 Example To find Pearson s product moment correlation coefficient for the following data showing the cost of maintaining 10 machines of different ages (in months): Machin e Age cost Put the data in vertical columns, identifying them as X and Y. Then find the values of the columns XY, X and Y. X Y XY X Y ΣX ΣY ΣXY ΣX ΣY Put these values into the formula: r = = 10x x970 [ 10x ] x[ 10x ] [30500][309600] = = = 0.88 A coefficient of 0.88 tells us that the link between age and cost is strong. Also, it is a positive correlation, which indicates that if age increases then cost also increases. The coefficient of determination = r x100 = 77.44% This indicates that 77.44% of the differences that occur in the cost are associated with differences in age. The remaining.56% of the differences are due to other factors. A rough guide to interpreting the correlation coefficient strength: Very strong Strong Fairly strong Walter Fleming Page 5 of 7
6 under 0.7 Weak to none Walter Fleming Page 6 of 7
7 To find the least squares equation of the regression line (line of best fit) The equation is of the form Y = a + bx Using the formulae for a and b, we get 10x x970 b = 10x = = a = 970.8x 300 = = So the regression equation is Y = X This can be used for forecasting. To forecast the cost of maintaining a machine that is 3 months old, substitute in 3 for X and find Y, the cost: Y = x3 = 77.4 To draw the regression line on the scatter graph: Find two points on the line by putting in two values for X and finding the Y. It is easier to draw if you take values for X that are near the lower end and near the higher end of the data. In this example you could take X = 5, which gives a value of Y = 7 And X = 50, which gives a value of Y = 353 Now plot the two points (5,7) and (50,353) on the scatter diagram then join them with a straight line. This is the regression line for the data. Walter Fleming Page 7 of 7
