The researchers cited in the previous problem also examined the weight/salary relationship for men and found a positive relationship, suggesting that we have very different standards for men than for women (Judge & Cable, 2010). The following are data similar to those obtained for working men. Again, weight relative to height is coded in five categories from 1 = thinnest to 5 = heaviest. Income is recorded as thousands earned annually.
a. Calculate the Pearson correlation for these data.
b. Is the correlation statistically significant? Use a two-tailed test with α = .05.
