Hi,
I'm currently in University and have a take home project to complete which asks the following question:
"Explain & describe the link or relation between correlation co-efficient and the T test."
While I know how to use and calculate both I am not sure I actually understand the similarities between both.
I was thinking it was somewhere along the lines of...
The closer to 1 or -1 the stronger the correlation between variables is, in other words how strongly one affects the other, and with the T test it's similar in the sense that you look at the strength of the significance between variables.
Statistics were never really my cup of tea but seeing as I will have more classes like these I would really like your help in actually understanding this matter. Also, as mentioned above, I in no way intend for you to do my homework for me and hence will not copy/paste anything. Just some clarification, or acknowledgement that I'm in the right direction (or completely off track).
Thank you in advance!
Nicole.
