Evaluatie Q1:

Om dit antwoord te formuleren heeft de student gebruik gemaakt van de ‘Kendall tau Correlation’. Dit is een goede keuze, omdat zo de verbanden tussen alle variabelen in 1 keer bestudeerd kunnen worden. Deze methode is veel ‘robuuster’ en ondervindt minder invloed van outliners. De conclusie van de student is juist. Namelijk RCF is beste voorspeller van RNR. Het antwoord van de student zou nog aangevuld kunnen worden door te zeggen dat dit komt doordat je uit de scatterplot kunt afleiden dat RNR en RCF een lineair verband vertonen, wat dus op een hoge correlatie wijst. Zoals de student vermeldt is het inderdaad zo dat het verband tussen RCF en RNR de laagste p-waarde vertoont, namelijk 1%. Dit wilt dus zeggen dat er slechts 1% kans is, dat dit verband toegeschreven kan worden aan toeval. Dat RCF en RNR de hoogste correlatie hebben,wordt nog eens bevestigd door de tabel die de gegevens tau (0.81 voor het verband tussen RCF en RNR) en p-waarde (0.01 voor het verband tussen RCF en RNR) bevat. Uit al deze gegevens, kunnen we dus besluiten dat RCF de beste voorspeller is van RNR.
