Performance Task Correlation and Regression
Performance Task Correlation and Regression
Content Standard: The learner demonstrates understanding of the key concepts of correlation and regression
analyses.
Performance Standard: The learner is able to perform correlation and regression analyses on real-life problems in
different disciplines.
Learning Competencies:
1. Formulate the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses.
2. Illustrate the nature of bivariate data.
3. Construct a scatter plot.
4. Describe the shape (form), trend (direction), and variation (strength) based on a scatter plot.
5. Calculate the Pearson’s sample correlation coefficient.
6. Predicts the value of the dependent variable given the value of the independent variable.
Task Overview:
You will explore the relationship between two real-world quantitative variables by collecting, organizing, analyzing, and
interpreting bivariate data. You will then use statistical tools such as scatter plots, correlation coefficients, and
regression analysis to describe the relationship and make predictions.
Instructions:
1. Choose a Research Topic
Select 3 quantitative variables that may have a relationship (1 independent variable and 2 dependent
variables).
2. Formulate Hypotheses
State the null hypothesis (H₀) and alternative hypothesis (H₁) regarding the relationship between
the two variables.
