Question 1 A psychologist was interested in the relationship between self-esteem and academic achievement. He asked 20 students to fill out a self-esteem scale and to write down their final exam scores. The data were entered in the Excel file “exam.xlsx”. a a) Conduct a correlation analysis and report the findings in sentence. Suppose the psychologist found a significant positive correlation between self-esteem and exam scores. She believed that this finding implies that a higher academic achievement leads to a higher self-esteem. b) What is the problem of this belief? Are there any alternative explanations? Since the psychologist believed that a higher academic achievement leads to a higher self-esteem, she decided to work out a mathematical formula that can predict the self-esteem level of a student from his/her final exam score. c) Conduct a regression analysis for this purpose. Report the results in sentence. d) According to the regression analysis results, if a student has a final exam score of 80 marks, what self-esteem level is expected?
