To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We can say that when a Minneapolis boy is below the average in tested ability for his age, he is most likely to be . 16 to, 29 of the same amount below the average in legal conduct, both measure- ments being in corresponding units. What then, is the significance of correlation in answer- ing the problem of causation? So far as the statistical method itself is concerned it shows only a mathematical functional relation between the conditions measured, not a physiological relationship. In other wo...rds a correla- tion between deficiency and delinquency might be ex- plained by both conditions being related to some more fundamental factor which might be the causal factor in- volved. One cannot reason from correlation to direct causal connection. On the other hand, by correlation we may directly compare the relation between any one trait and various factors. We can find out, for example, whether the association of delinquency with deficiency, is closer than the association of delinquency with other factors which it has been suggested are causes of delin- quency.
