Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A -1.00 correlation coefficient indicates a perfect negative relationship between two variables, meaning as one variable increases, the other decreases in a linear manner. However, it does not specify that a score on one measure must be the negative value of a score on the second measure; it only indicates the direction of the relationship, not the specific values of the scores.
