Std. Deviation - Standard deviation is the square root of the variance. It measures the spread of a set of observations. The larger the standard deviation is, the more spread out the observations are. …show more content…

This is a correlation table with different pearson values. Modern day material management is the dependant variable and rest are the independent variable. Different value of pearson coefficient suggests the degree by which dependant variable gets affected by independent …show more content…

In addition to telling you whether variables are positively or inversely related, correlation also tells you the degree to which the variables tend to move together.
As stated above, covariance measures variables that have different units of measurement. Using covariance, you could determine whether units were increasing or decreasing, but it was impossible to measure the degree to which the variables moved together because covariance does not use one standard unit of measurement. To measure the degree to which variables move together, you must use correlation.
• If the correlation coefficient is one, the variables have a perfect positive correlation. This means that if one variable moves a given amount, the second moves proportionally in the same direction. A positive correlation coefficient less than one indicates a less than perfect positive correlation, with the strength of the correlation growing as the number approaches one.
• If correlation coefficient is zero, no relationship exists between the variables. If one variable moves, you can make no predictions about the movement of the other variable; they are
