Question 2
If one compared an r of .90 and an r of .45 in terms of the magnitude of the relationship expressed, one would say that

b. an r of .90 indicates approximately four times as much relationship as an r of .45.
c. an r of .90 indicates a high relationship, while an r of .45 indicates a low relationship.
