Answer:

Correlation 1 between income & number of years in school is moderate positive. Correlation 2 between number of close friends & depression level is  moderate negative correlation.

Explanation:

Correlation is a statistical measure showing relationship between variables' direction of movement. It lies between 0 &1.

Positive Correlation means variables move in same direction, one variable increase implies other variable increase & vice versa.

Correlation 1 between income & number of years in school is positive correlation. So, higher income implies more years in school & vice versa.

Negative Correlation means variables move in opposite direction, one variable decrease implies other variable increase & vice versa.

Correlation 2 between number of close friends & depression level is negative correlation. So, more close friends imply lower depression level & vice versa.

Correlation 1 is moderate positive correlation (between 0.25 & 0.75). Correlation 2 is also moderate negative correlation (between -0.25 & -0.75)

san4es73 [151]

The research error described above is an example of selection bias.

Selection bias takes place when, from a population of interest, a group of individuals is selected in order to construct a sample but without a proper randomization. The result is a sample which is not representative of the underlying population.

According to the example, the target population of the research comprises all students but the sample only includes boys. Hence, selection has not been random because it followed a gender criteria, and the results obtained using it cannot be applicable to the whole population because they are affected by a selection bias.

sattari [20]

Answer: Accommodation and convergence

Explanation: accommodation and convergence is a depth cue associated with reflex action of the eye, that is, the involuntary movement of the eye in response to a particular stimulus. Accommodation convergence explains the behavior of the eye that is, changes in shape of the lens and size of pupil with respect to the distance of objects from the eye.

As objects get closer to the eye, the eyes move inward and feels like eye muscles are working. When the objects recedes the muscles become relaxed.
