It can be used when discussing the relationship or connection between two or more variables or factors, often in a statistical or analytical context.
Example: "The study revealed a certain degree of correlation between exercise frequency and overall health outcomes."
Alternatives: "a level of correlation" or "a measure of correlation".
A certain degree of correlation between the computed energy and experimental binding affinity is found, which suggests that the computed energy may be useful in facilitating a qualitative analysis of drug binding competitiveness.
Although the abundances of individual ASFV proteins varied in the different cell lines, a certain degree of correlation between the expression levels was observed which was most striking for the ASFV proteins expressed in Vero and in WSL-HP cells (Fig. 4, right panel) representing a susceptible (WSL-HP) and a non-susceptible (Vero) host.
Naturally, some of the models involve a certain degree of correlation, which occasionally enables their mutual and complementary combination.
Hence, a certain degree of correlation between the interruption probabilities is present, and therefore, the secondary users' call interruption process actually is not a Poissonian one.
In general, the analysis of the cross-correlation suggests that bistatic and monostatic data have a certain degree of correlation, which could influence the performance of the adopted detector.
In particular, as the dependent variable in regression models varies across individuals within villages, a certain degree of correlation between the outcomes of individuals belonging to the same village could be expected and thus affect the coefficient standard errors.
SAD gene expression shared a certain degree of negative correlation with C18 0 (correlation coefficient -0.216), and had a positive correlation with C18 1n9 (correlation coefficient 0.295).
In order to eliminate the collinearity among the variables, we detected the correlation coefficient among all the independent variables, and the results indicate that there is a certain degree of negative correlation between the registered permanent residence and education (−0.501) which is acceptable.
Furthermore, the thermal hydraulic system codes permit users to modify the coefficients corresponding to the correlations, providing a certain degree of freedom to calibrate the numerical results, i.e., peak cladding temperature.
Although the level of correlation was moderate, this finding suggest that a certain degree of homogeneity encompassed the criteria for merging clinical wards and hospital specialties into clinical directorates [ 32].
