| Abstract: |
Statistical correlation in quantitative data is discussed here. So far the statistics have been presented methodology for comparing the mean values of two samples. In this chapter we will study the way with of using the special statistical program, for the correlation study of two quantities. The correlation will be studied in a virtual dental technology experiment. For example ten test specimens could be constructed to measure firstly the tensile strength and then the hardness. From this pair of measurements with the help of statistical program the correlation between hardness and tensile strength can be evaluated and whether this correlation is strongly positive or negative.
