Hi,
I am wondering if it is a mistake to write the results of linear regression and logistic regression analysis as that the variables that you have analysed: do or do not correlate with each other.
Or is it wrong to say that they are correlated to each other and you should say that there is an association ( or no association) between the variables?
For example a is the independent variable, b is the dependent variable. You apply linear regression or logistic regression and report the results as:
a is correlatad with b or not correlated with b...
Hope you understand what I mean.
