Exercise motivation
Exercise motivation
Below is some raw data on 11 subjects that I want you to use and enter first into an Excel file. Then, complete the required statistical analyses. Exercise motivation is divided into two types (variables): paratelic and telic. Paratelic motivation refers to motives for exercising that people feel are spontaneous, exciting, and fun. Telic motivation refers to motives for exercising that are serious and strategies for goal setting and planning. also, make sure that the Analysis ToolPak Add-in is installed in your Excel program.

Task 4: P-value
undefined
Obtain P-value for the correlation coefficient r. Review the video tutorial below if you need help:

Note: Unlike the simple correlation coefficient r, which tells both the strength and direction of the association between two variables, Multiple R tells only the strength of the association and is never a negative value. So, report the simple correlation coefficient r value (rather than Multiple R value) and p-value.
