Result Details & Calculation
X Values ∑ = 804.3 Mean = 53.62 ∑(X - Mx)2 = SSx = 15194.724
Y Values ∑ = 16907.5 Mean = 1127.167 ∑(Y - My)2 = SSy = 199520070.413
X and Y Combined N = 15 ∑(X - Mx)(Y - My) = 1614964.21
R Calculation r = ∑((X - My)(Y - Mx)) / √((SSx)(SSy))
r = 1614964.21 / √((15194.724)(199520070.413)) = 0.9275
Meta Numerics (cross-check) r = 0.9275 What is the correlation coefficient without the outlier? rwo =
Solution
The correlation coefficient you calculated with the given data is . To calculate the correlation coefficient without the outlier, we would need to identify the outlier and then remove its effect on the sums and products used in the correlation calculation.
Let's assume that you have identified and removed the outlier. To calculate the new correlation coefficient (correlation without the outlier), the following steps would be needed:
Steps to Recalculate the Correlation Coefficient Without the Outlier:
- Adjust the sums and by removing the values of the outlier.
- Recalculate the means and without the outlier:
- Recalculate the sum of squares and without the outlier:
- Recalculate the combined sum without the outlier.
- Calculate the new correlation coefficient using the formula:
Since you haven't provided the specific data points or which one is the outlier, I cannot perform these steps exactly. However, if you can identify the outlier or provide the data, I can help you with the detailed calculations.
Would you like more details on identifying and removing the outlier, or do you have any specific data points to work with?
Follow-up Questions:
- How would you identify an outlier in a dataset?
- What happens to the mean of a dataset when you remove an outlier?
- How does removing an outlier generally affect the correlation coefficient?
- What are some methods to detect outliers in a dataset?
- How would the sum of squares change if you removed the highest value?
- What is the effect of outliers on the standard deviation?
- Can removing an outlier ever decrease the correlation coefficient?
- What is the difference between Pearson's correlation and Spearman's correlation?
Tip: When dealing with outliers, consider plotting the data to visually inspect their effect on the correlation.
