问题如下:

An analyst gathered information about three economic variables, He noted that whenever variable A increased by one unit, variable B increased by 0.5 units but variable C decreased by 0.5 units. The correlation between variables A and B and the correlation between variables A and C respectively, are closest to:

选项:

Correlation between variables A and B
Correlation between variables A and C
A.
0.5
-1.0
B.
0.5
-0.5
C.
1.0
-1.0

解释:

The relationship between variables A and B is perfect positive correlation (1.0) and the relationship between variables A and C is perfect negative correlation (-1.0).

同学你好,

A增加1单位,B增加固定的常数值(本题为0.5),则A和B为perfect positive correlation (ρ=1)。反之,如果A增加1单位,B增加的数值是变化的,则不是perfect positive correlation,此时0<ρ<1.

同理,A增加1单位,C减少固定的常数值,则为perfect negative correlation (ρ=-1).
