Measures of association which meet Costner’s P-R-E criterion can be interpreted in a certain way. How are they interpreted?
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: Measures of association which meet Costner’s P-R-E criterion can be interpreted as the proportion by which you can reduce the number of errors in predicting the dependent variable by knowing the independent variable. Thus, if a P-R-E measure of association is .50 for the relationship between support for racial equality and race, this means that we can reduce the number of errors in the dependent variable (support for racial equality) by 50% by knowing the independent variable (race).
