What does correlation measure in statistics?
Correlation measures the degree and direction of linear relationship between two variables. It quantifies how closely two variables move together.

Simple ignores other variables; partial controls for them.
What is the range of the correlation coefficient?
The correlation coefficient (r) ranges from -1 to +1. A value of +1 indicates perfect positive correlation, -1 indicates perfect negative correlation, and 0 indicates no linear relationship.
What is a spurious correlation?
