  • 1.  Correlation analysis

    Posted 26 days ago

    Hello, 

    I was running the same correlations for sometime now. Nothing changed in my data, the variables and the steps I used for the procedure however results have changed. Now, I find no correlations between the variables under focus, in contrast to the past. I have no idea about what is going on. Can you please help me understand. I feel desperate as I need the results for a master's dissertation. 

    Thank you.

    Well, something has changed, but it's impossible to say what.  One likely cause is that if you have user missing values in your data, perhaps the missing value definitions have not been reexecuted.  That would very likely mess up the correlations.

    Look at the summary statistics for the data to see what might be different from what you expected.
