  22. Rounded, the mean reading score is 52 and sd=10 and the mean math score is also 52 and sd=10. If a given student’s reading score is 67, then what is your best estimate of her math score? .69

  23. In predicting someone’s math score, if you could have just one piece of information, and it is either (a) her reading score, or (b) her self concept score, which would you rather have? What’s it worth to you? .16 .69

  24. Explain to a non-statistician what it means to say “reading and math scores are correlated r=.69 in this population”. .69

  25. A key to understanding r zy = zx When X and Y are perfectly correlated

  26. We can say that zx perfectly predicts zy zy’ = zx Or zy = zx ^

  27. When they are imperfectly correlated, i.e., rxy≠ 1 or -1 zy’ = rxyzx r is the slope of the predicted line, with a zero-intercept of z’y=0

  28. Explain to a non-statistician what it means to say “reading and math scores are correlated r=.69 in this population”.
