Measures of association, such as correlation coefficients, can increase our understanding of the relationship between two variables (causal or not) and can also enhance our ability to predict the value of one variable based on the value of the other variable. However, they do not provide proof of a causal relationship between the variables. Therefore, option D is the best answer.
