Values of the Pearson Correlation
- The Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient is a measure of the strength of the linear relationship between two variables.
- If the relationship between the variables is not linear, then the correlation coefficient does not adequately represent the strength of the relationship between the variables.
- An r of -1 indicates a perfect negative linear relationship between variables, an r of 0 indicates no linear relationship between variables, and an r of 1 indicates a perfect positive linear relationship between variables.
- The relationship between grip strength and arm strength depicted in Figure 5 is 0.63.
- Notice that there is no relationship between X and Y
-
Phases of relationship development
- Managers should be aware of the current phase of the relationship and evaluate decisions based upon how they impact the development of the relationship.
- In this phase, additional business interactions focused on a long-term relationship are investigated.
- This stage is usually the final and most complex stage of a strategic relationship.
- This may occur during any of the various phases of the relationship development process.
- While relationships will follow this development life cycle, a manager's skills will substantially impact how the relationship develops and the success of the agreements for the organization.

Secondary Groups

- Examples of secondary groups include vendor-to-client relationships, a doctor-to-patient relationship, a mechanic, an accountant, and such.
- Unlike first groups, secondary groups are large groups whose relationships are impersonal and goal oriented.
- Secondary relationships involve weak emotional ties and little personal knowledge of one another.
- Primary groups can form within secondary groups as relationships become more personal and close.

Line Structure
- The line structure model of organization is a direct linear relationship of command and deference between superiors and their subordinates.
- If updated manually, organizational charts can very quickly become out-of-date, especially in large organizations that change their staff regularly.They only show "formal relationships" and tell nothing of the pattern of human (social) relationships which develop.
- They also often do not show horizontal relationships.
- An example of a "line relationship" (or chain of command in military relationships) in would be between the manager and the two supervisors.
- An example of a "line relationship" (or chain of command in military relationships) in this chart would be between the manager and the two supervisors.

- If there is a relationship, what is it and how strong is it?
- Dependence refers to any statistical relationship between two random variables or two sets of data.
