What is The Correlation Coefficient & The Coefficient of Determination?

Hi! My name is Kody Amour, and I make free math videos on KZread. My goal is to provide free open-access online college math lecture series on KZread using free open-access resources. I rely on generous donations and ad revenue - a special thanks to everyone who helped this channel grow.

    Dude this is amazing. Honestly man. Been trying to find something that explains this to me for the past 40mins and hit your video. Now I can get on with the work again LOL THANK YOU. KEEP MAKING VIDEOS!!!

    I think if r=0 it means no LINEAR relationship. There could be a relationship but not linear.

    Thanks. This is good theory. Can you give us some examples? i.e. what an r score of two sets of data mean and what an r squared of the same data sets mean? That would be really helpful. Thanks.

    If you add a lot of independent variables to train the linear regression model,and you end up with a really high coefficient of determination, you risk getting a model that has weird spikes and outliers. Our university prof recommended aiming for a model in the range of 70%-80%

    I was watching to understand the difference between r and r-squared. "so lets talk about the difference between r and r-squared.." - gives definition of r-squared - says it's a weird explanation but here's how he approaches it in real life (practically) -- the idea is I never use the correlation coefficient (r).. never, ever.. still a good video, i just have to look elsewhere for "r" thumbs up! I think my question is, where does (r) come into play, other than with helping to understand the +/- relationship with the slope? thanks

    If my r2 is 0.95, then does that mean that the predicted y of the regression line has a +-5% error? Should it be used as a factor of safety?

    It means that your dependent variables (Y) are explained by 5% of other factors and not the independ varibles (X).

    Hi, R and r are not the same thing. r deals with x and y, while R deals with multiple x variables and y.
