De getallen zeggen niet wat correlatie is, maar geven de betrouwbaarheid weer. Hoe kleiner het getal, hoe betrouwbaarder dit is. Het kleinste getal die we zien is 0,01 bij RCF. Kijken we in de tabel dan zien we bij RNR en RCF dat de tau (correlatiecoëfficiënt) het grootst is. RCF is dus het meest betrouwbaar om RNR te voorspellen.

De student heeft deze vraag verkeerd beantwoord. Hoe hoger de p-waarde, hoe toevalliger. De waarde moet zeker onder 0,5 om betrouwbaar te zijn. In dit geval is dus RCF het meest betrouwbaar om RNR te voorspellen.

Foute conclusie.
De 0.01 verwijst naar de betrouwbaarheid van de correlatiecoëfficient. Hoe hoger dat deze waarde is, hoe meer kans op toeval. Hoe kleiner dat het is, hoe beter (dus betrouwbaarder).
Hier is sprake van een positieve correlatie.
Het juiste antwoord is hier 'RCF'.

De student trekt de foute conclusie. Hoe hoger het getal, des te toevalliger de uitkomst.
2008-11-11 14:12:46 [Elias Van Deun] [reply] 
Haar berekening is juist, maar ze trekt een foute conclusie. We zoeken in tegenstelling tot wat zij zegt, wel degelijk naar de kleinste p-waarde. Dit doen we omdat dan de betrouwbaarheid het grootst is en de kans dat het verband dan op toeval berust zeer klein is.

De beste predictor voor netto rendabiliteit op EV is de variabele RCF. De variabele RCF heeft namelijk het beste en significante verband met de netto rendabiliteit. Dit betekent tevens dat de correlatie tussen RCF en de cashflow niet op toeval berust. In deze sector kan men dus het bedrijf evalueren door de cash flow te analyseren.

Ik heb hier inderdaad een foutieve conclusie getrokken. 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.
