The Language of Correlation and Causation

Оглавление

The words you use to describe your research have certain implications. When you use such words as impact, influence, determine, control, regulate, shape, alter, or modify, you suggest causality. When you use such words as association, relationship, link, or correspondence, you suggest correlation. In your writing, it is important to use the language that matches the kind of research you have done (see also Chapter 13 on writing up research).
