What is the difference between correlation and identity?

Respond to Idamelis post in first person. If I disagree with someone’s post, I would not only state that I disagree I would also provide a counter claim to show evidence form a credible source as a way to bolster and explain my disagreement. Always keep in mind that since there is no tone in a post, the best way to disagree is to provide a counter argument in a polite and academic manner along with a citation from a credible source.

Identity is when two things are equivalent and true for all the values ​​of the variables, it is the relation of equality that a variable represents by itself (Moore and Parker, 2017). Unlike correlation, which one variable depends on the other, correlation is the relationship between variables and it cannot be established whether one variable is responsible for a change in the other (Moore and Parker, 2017). If two variables are correlated, it does not mean that both variables are equal (Moore and Parker, 2017).Why is it important to distinguish between the two concepts? It is a fallacy to confuse correlation with identity and this could happen if a person tries to create a correlation between two things that have their own very personal identity marks. Correlation is not identity (Moore and Parker, 2017). Correlation, as it is important to remember, does not prove causality (Moore and Parker, 2017).Provide an example of a statement that confuses correlation with identity. An example of a statement that confuses correlation and identity would be that age correlates with being wise. Although these two are related since over the years a lot of wisdom is acquired through life experience, it could be true in some cases, these are two different properties and have their own identity (Moore and Parker, 2017).ReferencesMoore, B.
