1 Ca we tae the Mstcsm Out of the Pearso Coeffcet of Lear Correlato? Itroducto As the ttle of ths tutoral dcates, our purpose s to egeder a clear uderstadg of the Pearso coeffcet of lear correlato studets mds, dlute the mstcsm of the formula to a mmum, ad help studets to feel at home wth applcatos of the formula Cosder the set of data: D {( x, ),( x, ),,( x, )} 1 1 The Pearso coeffcet of lear correlato s gve b the formula: r 1 ( x x)( ) ( 1) s s, 1, (1) x where ( x x) ( ),, ad 1 1 x1 x x 1 x sx s stadard devato of x stadard devato of For the coveece of referece, ths tutoral we ame the quatt, 1 ( x x)( ), () as the total covarato, the pot ( x, ), as the average pot, the quatt, varace, ad the quatt, ( ), as the - varace ( x x), as the x- From Equato (1), we have: r ( 1) 1 ( x x)( ) ( x x) ( ) 1 1 Hece, the coeffcet r ca be wrtte the form 1
2 r 1 ( x x)( ) ( x x) ( ) 1 1 (3) The formula ca be gve as r 1 ( xx)( ) ( 1) average covarace of x ad, s s (stadard devato of x)(stadard devato of ) where we have termed the quatt, as average covarace x ( x x)( ) 1, ( 1) Now, we wll explore how a mathematca could have thought whe she s costructg ths formula for the frst tme the hstor A Example of a Set of Pots wth Lear Oretato Ths formula appears mstcal to ma studets The ust ow t has to wor; the have o dea wh t wors the wa t does The studets feel that the formula arrved to the textboos of mathematcs b autogeess I ths tutoral, we are trg to loo at how the dea of dervato of ths formula could have bee motvated some mathematca s md I order to do so, we wll loo at the followg set of pots whch has some lear oretato
3 I ths data set of {( x1, 1),( x, ),,( x, )}, x1 x x 1 x ad The average pot, ( x, ), has bee mared blue, the dagram above Also, for oe data pot, ( x, ), the covarace compoets are mared the dagram, p ad gree, respectvel For ths pot, the covarace product s ( x x) ( ) 0 0 Also, for oe data pot, ( x, ), the covarace compoets are mared the dagram For ths pot, the covarace product s 0 ( x x)( ) That s, both ( x x)( ) ad ( x x )( ) are postve Ths fact s vald for all the other data pots the set Ths happes due to the oretato of the pots, as a whole More explctl, the pots are stuated ol QI ad QIII, wth respect to the axes through the pot, ( x, ) Therefore, both covarace compoets have the same sg The, the covarace product for each of the pots s postve Therefore, the total covarace, s postve Also, ote that, f we add more ad more pots to ust the Quadrats I ad IV, such a maer that stll the average pot s ( x, ), the the total covarace becomes larger ad larger, wthout a lmt Aother Set of Pots Whch Has Pots I Other Two Quadrats To further see ths, cosder the followg dagram 3
4 I ths dagram, we have added two ew pots to each of the quadrats, QII ad QIV, such a maer that the average pot remas the same Respectve covarace products of each of these ew pots, s egatve, sce the compoets of each of these products have dfferet sgs Cosequetl, the total sum of these covarace products, ad the average covarace, become less 1 ( x x)( ), ( x x)( ) 1, ( 1) Now mage that we eep addg pots to QII ad QIV, such a maer that the average pot, ( x, ), remas the same? Because of ths, two thgs wll happe: The total covarace, ad the average covarace, become less ad less 1 ( x x)( ), ( x x)( ) 1, ( 1) Oretato of the pots, as a whole, wll become more ad more spread out ad become less ad less lear Hece, f the magtude (ust the quatt wthout the sg) s closer to zero the pots are spread aroud the average pot, ( x, ), almost smmetrcall, ad pots wll ot le closer to a straght le, as a whole We further observe that, 1 r ( x x)( ) 0 ( x x)( ) 0 ( 1) sxs 1 1 That s, the value of r beg zero has othg to do wth the values of a of the dvsors, -1, s x or s We wll loo at the role of these dvsors, later B loog at the followg dagram, we ca clearl see how the scearo wors out whe 4
