pick the choice that best completes the following sentence: if we describe the relationship between two variables as 'statistically significant we mean that
a. changes in one variable are associated with large changes in the other
b. changes in one variable cause significant changes in the other
c. the two variables are related in the population represented by the sample
d. the two variables are related in the sample due to chance alone
Solution:
Given statement is: If we describe the relationship between two variables as 'statistically significant'
We check the relationship between two populations. But we can not study all the population, that's why we take sample from two populations and based on that sample we check relationship between those samples. That samples should be representative of the population. Hence, 'statistical significance' related in the population represented by the sample.
Hence option c describes best meaning for given statement.
