Question

Provide the formula for the Pearson’s r.

Answer 1

One standard formula for measuring the correlation is the correlation coefficient r, sometimes known as the Pearson’s r. provided two time series, X and Y with means X? and Y?, each with n elements, the formula for r is

S (xi – X?) (yi – Y?)
