“…A correlational analysis was conducted to examine the associations between the variables under study ( Cohen et al, 1983 ; Curtis et al, 2016 ). The results shown in Table 1 suggest Centrality of Events is associated with Positive Affect, Satisfaction with Life, Religious Involvement, Religious Crisis, Prayer Fulfillment, Universality, and Spiritual Transcendence ( Table 1 ).…”

This study aims to explore the impact of migration as a central event in personal identity, spirituality, and religiousness on subjective well-being (SWB). The sample was composed of 204 Latin American immigrants living in Israel, with ages ranging from 18 to 80 years (M = 48.76; SD = 15.36) across both sexes (Men = 34.8%; Women = 65.2%). The results show that, when analyzing the effects on SWB, Positive and Negative Affect, Centrality of Event, Religious Crisis, and Spiritual Transcendence present as the most relevant explanatory variables within the models. However, contrary to expectation, the present study identifies positive associations between the centrality of migration and SWB. Motivations for emigration should be explored in further studies as they could be mediating the relationship between centrality of events and SWB.

“…Further, this study may be limited by the features of a cross-sectional, correlational design. Although our interpretations are based on theory and previous work, cross-sectional, correlational research cannot support conclusions on causal relationships [64,65]. In addition, our data was self-reported and one does not know the extent to which self-reported data represents an accurate, unbiased reflection of what is being measured [66].…”

The main purpose of the current study was to examine how the coach-athlete working alliance, psychological resilience and perceived stress are uniquely associated with burnout among junior athletes in sport. A sample of 670 Norwegian junior athletes practicing a variety of sports participated in the study. A hierarchical multiple regression analysis showed that the bond dimension of the working alliance, the protective factors ‘planned future’ and ‘structured style’, as well as perceived stress, all contributed uniquely to the explanation of athlete burnout. A dominance analysis identified perceived stress to have the strongest relative influence on athlete burnout among the set of variables investigated in this study. The findings are discussed in terms of applied implications and possible future research.

“…Readers have the opportunities to be provided with a meticulous, systematic and vivid strategy of ensuring that the sentiments, ideas through which the artwork was carried out whiles the images work in the reader's mind (Sneck et al, 2016). Curtis et al (2016) opine that a descriptive research often tells readers the likely art they would see, or even what they would feel, hear, smell or even think. Because of this, powerful and strong adjectives were used in this study since they portrayed the researchers' ability to create pictures in their readers' minds.…”

Artists in Ghana who produce sculptural busts or portraits mostly limit their production materials to clay, P.O.P., cement, and metal cast. These materials may have defects and could be potentially affected by environmental conditions for lifelong periods. Aluminium welding is not practiced by artists in the fabrication of photorealistic portraits. The techniques used by artists in Ghana is the clay and cement model, which can further be used in the creation of a cast resin or metal. The researchers investigated the most used materials for creating realistic busts. The pros and cons of the materials as well as their techniques were rigorously analyzed in comparison with the aluminium forming and welding technique. Welders are constrained as far as what they can create. Mostly welders produce iron gates, burglar-proof and security locks. There is the need to diversify the technique to be able to produce portraits as a step in experimenting and diversifying the material and technique.

Importance and use of correlational research

Abstract: Correlational research is widely used and this paper should be particularly useful for novice nurse researchers. Furthermore, findings generated from correlational research can be used, for example, to inform decision-making, and to improve or initiate health-related activities or change.
