Question

Analyze the following statement:

Brandon puts his water in the refrigerator so it will stay cold.

Is the statement an example of correlation or causation?

anonymous · Answer

Correlation, because there aren't enough observable trials

Causation, because a refrigerator keeps things cold

No relationship, because water temperature is independent of whether or not it is in a refrigerator

There is not enough information to make a conclusion
