Answer the following questions about the correlations based on the table that the authors present bivariate correlations:
a. Which is the strongest correlation in the entire table? Be sure to include the value of the correlation and describe the correlation (which variables are correlated).
b. Which is the weakest correlation in the entire table? Be sure to include the value of the correlation and describe the correlation (which variables are correlated).
c. Which variable(s) are consistently positively correlated with the criminological term you are interested in (e.g., crime, delinquency, sentencing length, etc.)? Interpret one positive relationship in sentence form (in the form of, as X increases, what happens to Y).
d. Which variable(s) are consistently negatively correlated with the criminological term you are interested in (e.g., crime, delinquency, sentencing length, etc.)? Interpret one negative relationship in sentence form (in the form of, as X increases, what happens to Y).
