Produce a correlation matrix, exclude cases pairwise, and request Pearson's r for the variables MAEDUC (independent) and EDUC (dependent).

1. Pearson's r for MAEDUC and EDUC is ____________ whereas r^2 is _____________.
2. Would you characterize the relationship between these two variables as weak, moderate, or strong? Explain.
3. What proportion of the variation in EDUC can be explained by the variation in MAEDUC? [Hint: You've already calculated the PRE measure that will reveal this amount.]
