Final Exam (Page 2 of 8)

A physical education teacher conducted a study to determine if there is an association between student height and long jump performance. He measured the heights and long jump distances of students. A Pearson's correlation was run and found a strong positive correlation of 0.706 between height and distance jumped, indicating their linear relationship. The correlation was statistically significant based on a p-value of 0.005. Height and long jump distance are continuous variables that can be plotted on a scatter plot. Outliers may be identified on such a plot. The teacher also had to perform a normality test before the Pearson's correlation to check if the data was normally distributed.

Match the following statements to their corresponding answers on the right column.
A PE teacher wants to know whether his student's height is related to how well they perform in a long jump. He
recruited students from the general population, measured their height and had them perform a long jump. The
researcher then investigated whether there was an association between height and long jump performance by
running a Pearson's correlation.

It indicates that the strong, positive correlation between height and distance jumped is
0.005
statistically significant.
