As a project for a psychology course, a student correlated weight and intelligence scores for 250 students. The computed correlation coefficient was .00. What did the scatterplot look like?

Question

If the correlation coefficient was .00 it means that there was no correlation. It means that weight and intelligence had absolutely nothing to do with one another. Take a look at this picture. Look at the graph where P=0. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/86/Correlation_coefficient.gif/400px-Correlation_coefficient.gif When the correlation coefficient is .00, we can see that the points (dots) are just randomly scattered on the graph.
