question 3

Multiple Choice

You run a correlation matrix of the seven different skinfold sites and obtain an R value of .87 for the abdominal and subscapular sites and a variance inflation factor (VIF) of 0.1. What would you deduce from these findings?

• A) A high degree of collinearity is likely between these two skinfold sites.
• B) A low degree of collinearity is likely between these two skinfold sites.
• C) A moderate degree of collinearity is likely between these two skinfold sites.
• D) These figures make it difficult to deduce firm conclusions.
