Let op: de p-value is geen correlatiecoëfficient, maar zegt ons iets over de betrouwbaarheid van de correlatie (betrouwbaarheidsinterval). Hoe kleiner deze waarde, hoeveel te meer (positieve) correlatie en des te betrouwbaarder.

De kleinste waarde in dit geval is 0,01 wat wil zeggen dat RCF en RNR het meest gecorreleerd zijn. Ook bij 0,03 (RNVM en RNR) is er een grote correlatie.

In het tabelletje boven het correlation plot staat ook het bewijs hiervan. De tau is de correlatiecoëfficiënt. Deze ligt het dichtst bij 1 bij de bovenvermelde 2 gevallen.

Dit wil dus ook zeggen dat RCF de beste predictor is voor RNR.

Aan het scatterplot zien we ook dat hier de meeste punten op één lijn liggen.

Ik sluit me aan bij bovenstaande commentaar.

De p-waarden onder 0,05 geven dus aan welke variabelen verband hebben. De verbanden worden in een grafieken geschetst en op het oog zijn deze te beoordelen aan de hand van de (evenredige) stijging van de lijnen.

Hier ga je inderdaad in de fout, je moest naar de hoogste tauwaarde gaan zien en naar de kleinste p-waarde en dan had je gezien dat de beste predictor voor RNR de variabele RCF is.

Deze correlatie vinden we ook op het scatter plot terug. Al de punten tussen deze 2 variabele liggen zo goed als op één rechte en hebben een betrouwbaarheidscoëfficiënt van 0.03, dus is deze correlatie wel degelijk significant.
2008-11-11 18:32:42 [Yara Van Overstraeten] [reply] 
Dit antwoord is inderdaad foutief. Je moet hier kijken naar de kleinste p-waarde en de grootste tau-waarde. Hoe kleiner de p-waarde, hoe betrouwbaarder de resultaten. De resultaten berusten hier dus niet op het toeval. De variabele RCF is dus de beste predictor voor RER omdat er hier een groot verband is (correlatie van 80,95%) en een kleine p-waarde van 0,01.
