associations between emotional stability and substance risk. Emotional stability‚ a domain of personality that has received little research attention‚ was found to be a predictor of substance risk. The slight‚ positive statistically significant correlation becomes somewhat smaller when controlling for GPA.

Understanding the Pearson Correlation Coefficient (r) The Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient (r) assesses the degree that quantitative variables are linearly related in a sample. Each individual or case must have scores on two quantitative variables (i.e.‚ continuous variables measured on the interval or ratio scales). The significance test for r evaluates whether there is a linear relationship between the two variables in the population. The appropriate correlation coefficient depends on
