You hypothesize that the length of participation in the program will be negatively associated with the number of incidents of violence. Interpret the following results in a single statement addressing if there is a significant association and if so, it is positive or negative, strong, moderate, or weak?
(just need to know if it is positive or negative, strong, moderate, or weak)
A. r = 0.25 p = 0.049
B. r = -0.81 p = 0.002

Solution

A . r = 0.25 and p=0.049 , \'r\'= Correlation Coefficient , \'p\' = length of participation . Here the length of participation is 0.049 and the association is moderate positive and also the participation is comparatively high as the other is quite a small figure

B. r = -0.81 and p= 0.002, The association strongly negative and the lenght of participation is significantly small.
