Correlational laws

Correlational laws refer to laws that specify the systematic relationships among classes of empirical events. The events described by Correlational laws do not need to be causally related unlike causal laws. One can note, for example, that as average daily temperature rises, so does the death rate without knowing or even caring if the two (2) events are causally related.

Correlational research strategy

Correlational research strategy refers to a general approach to research that involves measuring two (2) or more variables in order to describe the relationship between the variables. The variables are measured and recorded to obtain a set of scores, often two (2) scores, for each individual. Then, the measurements are reviewed to identify any patterns of relationship that exist between the variables and to measure the strength of the relationship.

Correlational studies

Correlational studies refer to studies designed to yield information concerning the degree of relationship between two (2) variables. It is a non-experimental study designed to measure the degree of relationship, if any, between two (2) or more events, measures, or variables. Moreover, a Correlational study is a research procedure in which variables are measured and compared to detect any association but are not manipulated. Conclusions about cause and effect relationships are not permissible.
