From Research Methods and Data Analysis in Psychology

This discussion assignment is related to your Chapter (Salkind) material. I expect these answers to be your own original answers.

Post a comment in which you explain:

What is another possible explanation for this correlation that you calculated in your Individual HW Assignment 7. Since this is just a correlation, we can't be sure if age actually causes changes in the percentage of field goals players make, so what is one possible other explanation that you can come up with for the correlation that you calculated (hint: think about possible "third variable" explanations for this correlation---what other variables or factors might be causing changes in both x and y that could explain this correlation?)

Post a reply in which you:

Do you agree with your group member's post? Why or why not?
