Table 1.3 (page 29) reports data on 78 seventh-grade students. We expect a positive asso- ciation between IQ and GPA. Moreover, some people think that self-concept is related to school performance. Examine in detail the relationships between GPA and the two explanatory variables IQ and self-concept. Are the relationships roughly linear? How strong are they? Are there unusual points? What is the effect of removing these points?

Explanation / Answer

Here dependent variable that GPA and two explanatory variables IQ and self-concept.

Here we have to find relationship between these three variables.

This we can find by using MINITAB.

steps :

ENTER data into MINITAB sheet --> Stat --> Basic Statistics --> COrrelation --> Variables : select all the three variables --> do not click on display p-values --> ok

Correlations: GPA, IQ, SelfConcept
