Correlation Coefficient
Interpretation Guideline
The correlation coefficient (r) ranges from -1
(a perfect negative correlation) to 1 (a perfect
positive correlation). In short, −1 ≤ 𝑟 ≤ 1.

Correlation Coefficient
Interpretation Guideline
Rule of thumb:
 0.0 = |r|: no correlation
 0.0 < |r| < 0.2 : very weak correlation
 0.2 ≤ |r| < 0.4 : weak correlation
 0.4 ≤ |r| < 0.6 : moderately strong correlation
 0.6 ≤ |r| ≤ 0.8 : strong correlation
 0.8 ≤ |r| < 1.0 : very strong correlation
 1.0 = |r| : perfect correlation
