Your best friend tells you he got a correlational score of 14.6 from the research he conducted. What can you infer from his finding?

a. Your friend’s analysis is flawed. Correlational scores only range from −1.00 to +1.00.

b. Your friend’s research shows only a small correlation since 14.6 is close to zero.

c. Your friend’s research shows a positive score in 14.6, and therefore a positive relationship exists.

d. Your friend’s research is inconclusive. You need more than a correlational score of 14.6 to know if there is any statistical significance.
