A sample of n = 25 pairs of scores (X and Y values) produces a correlation of r = –0.40. Are these sample data sufficient to conclude that there is a significant non-zero correlation between X and Y in the population? Use a two-tailed test at the α = 0.05 level of significance. Which proportion of the variance for the Y scores is predicted by the regression equation?
