How to use this tool

  1. Enter correlation x,y, correlation x,z, correlation y,z.
  2. Use the displayed units and confirm the model assumptions.
  3. Calculate and compare the outputs against your input scenario.

Try this example

{
  "rxy": 0.7,
  "rxz": 0.4,
  "ryz": 0.3
}

Accuracy and scope

Linear partial association, not causal adjustment or a test of independence.
