Correlation and dependence

In the article Creating social connection through inferential reproduction: Loneliness and perceived agency in gadgets, gods, and greyhounds by Epley, Akalis, Waytz & Cacioppo the researchers conducted three studies. The purpose of the studies were to examine if loneliness was significantly correlated with the anthropomorphic mental-state, if social disconnection increase belief in some religious agents or actions, and whether the likelihood of attributing humanlike mental states or traits to pets

alcohol (95% CI = [29.02, 33.58]). When a Spearman’s correlation analysis was used a negative correlation was found indicating that a the less amount of hours a person worked a week the higher their dependency on alcohol is. This correlation supported the hypotheses. A Spearman’s correlation was used because thee out of the four test for a normally distributed population were violated and the sample size was over 100. However, the correlation was not significant rs = -.114, n = 152, p = .08 (one

participants undergoing the course Biological Psychology was carried out in order to examine the correlation between sensitivity to reward (SP), Body Mass Index (BMI), weight and more frequent consumption of unhealthy fast foods, (e.g., high in fat and sugar). The core results showed the participants found that sensitivity to reward was strongly negatively correlated with BMI and weight. However, both these correlations are not statistically significant at the 95% confidence level. Alongside this finding,

correlated to the behavioral, affective, and cognitive dimension of attitude toward change. For hypothesis 3a, it was hypothesized that trust moderates the relationship between attitude toward change and change information, therefore there’s a positive correlation between trust and change information, and trust and the affective, behavioral, and cognitive dimension of attitude toward change. Furthermore, for hypothesis 3b, the authors hypothesized that trust affected psychological contract fulfillment in

Data Analysis and Interpretation In selecting the appropriate statistical test for your data analysis, you need to identify the question or hypothesis for the study. Are you trying to compare groups, interested in finding out if there is a relationship between two or more variables, or are you trying to predict. Some factors to consider as well are the following: (1) Research design, (2) Level of measurement: nominal, ordinal, interval, ratio, (3) Number of groups, and if they are correlated (dependent)

Q-methodology was first introduced by psychologist William Stephenson (1902-1989). “Q-methodology combines the strengths of both qualitative and quantitative methods” (Brown, 1996). The method is one that studies subjectivity and can be used on various researches. Subjectivity can be defined as “a person’s communication of his or her point of view” and it is always stems from a person’s “internal frame of reference” (McKeown & Thomas, 1988). An internal frame of reference can refer to the personal
