Assessment Description
\nCorrelation is the process of establishing a relationship between two or more factors. Correlation is an
\nimportant concept that can be misused. One misuse is saying that factor A is caused by factor B just because
\ncorrelation is found. Cause cannot be implied simply from correlation. Find two examples in scholarly articles
\nwithin the last 10 years that use correlation analysis. One of the articles must use correlation to imply
\ncausation correctly and one article should not have justifcation to imply cause.
\n1. Summarize both articles in at least 500 words.
\n2. Explain why cause was appropriate in one article and not in the other.
\n3. What would be needed for the second article to justify a statement of cause?
\nWhile APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and
\ndocumentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, which can be found in the
\nAPA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
\nThis assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar
\nwith the expectations for successful completion.
