I suppose that those dots are also far from the best-fit line. In this case, the graph means a weak positive relationship. The loosely distributed dots represent a weak association between two variables, and the inclination slope indicates that the correlation is positive.

It is conceivable that individuals who have been incarcerated and now reside in the community may encounter social exclusion. I am determined to take action to address this issue. However, merely asking them, “Do you feel socially excluded?” does not provide a comprehensive understanding of their experience. Can you assist me in finding a solution?

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
