Small negative correlations were present between mean fiber diameter and subjectively assessed luster scores.
The sampling procedure eliminates much or all of the small negative correlations described earlier (table 5).
Small negative correlations were observed between the HIT-6 and the SF-8 scales and summary scores.
There were small negative correlations between NO2 and PNC3 10 (−0.16) and PNC10 30 (−0.09) and a moderate positive correlation between NO2 and PNC30 50 (0.22) and PNC50 100 (r = 0.43).
We also found small negative correlations of these species with organic acids and small positive correlations with WSOC, suggesting that POA and SOA concentrations are relatively independent of each other at the study sites.
Past research has shown small negative correlations between mathematics performance and MA (average correlations of -.27. and -.34 in two meta-analyses) [ 11, 19- 24], indicating that those with high MA show poorer mathematics achievement.
On the other hand, small negative correlations emerged between age and symptoms of anxiety and depression (rs being −0.18 and −0.16, respectively), which means that these symptoms tended to decline as children became older.
In the VA, inpatients may still receive care in the outpatient clinics, because both types of care are provided in the larger facilities, making it difficult to disentangle these measures, but inpatient days did show a small negative correlation with primary care visits (r = -0.03 to r = -0.04).
We did find that there was a small negative correlation between religiosity and generosity, but that was mainly about the children of the very religious being slightly less generous than those of the moderately religious, rather than a difference between a religious and non-religious families.
To assess construct validity, scores on the final version of the NARQ were compared to the scores of the ERQ scales, expecting significant, but not perfect correlations and the BDI, expecting a small negative correlation with the Reappraisal scale and a small positive correlation with the Suppression scale.
