Explanation / Answer

5: causality cannot be inferred from correlation

Correlation is only used to find the relationship between variables. It also tells the direction of relationship, that is, if there is a negative or inverse relationship (as 1 variable increases the other decreases or vice versa) and positive relationship (both variables over in the same direction: as 1 increases the other increases or as 1 decrease the other also decreases). It also gives you strength of relationship, if the relationship is strong, moderate or weak

The test used for this question will be regression as regression is used to predict how much one variable accounts for a change in the other variable. The terms used in regression are predictor and criterion variable. The predictor variable is the independent variable and criterion is the outcome or dependent variable
