A question that has puzzled researchers for years is…do you really sleep worse after watching a horror movie? To answer this question once and for all, a researcher at EUR drew a sample from all visitors to a Horror-film festival (Slasher-fest) in Rotterdam. The participants had to indicate the length of the movie they had watched at the festival, and how many hours they had slept the night after the festival. The researcher also administered a questionnaire to the participants measuring their “degree of anxiety,” and recorded whether a person was male [Gender = 0] or female [Gender = 1].
What is the Pearson correlation between the number of hours of sleep [HourSleep] and the number of minutes of movie [MinutenFilm] among men [Gender]? (3 decimal places)
The correct answer is 0.141
