Question
Chapter 15, Problem 23P
To determine
- Conversion of the data from this problem into a form suitable for the point-biserial
correlation (use 1 for the money and 0 for the plain paper), and then compute the correlation. - Square of the value of the point-biserial correlation to obtain
r 2 . - The
t test in chapter 10 produced t = 3.57 with d f = 16 . Use the equation on p. 518 to compute the value of r 2 directly from the t statistic and its d f .Within rounding error, the value of r 2 from the equation should be equal to the value obtained from the point-biserial correlation.
