Table 1. The table above displays the eight students that spent time on Facebook, as well as their long-
term test results in their major.

FORMULA:

n=8

r = 8 (791) - (28.0333) (230)

⟌ 8 (126.0011) - (28.0333) ² * ⟌ 8 (9012) - (230) ²

r = -119.659 ÷ 2056.007249

r = -0.058
The figure of r = -0.058 indicates that there is a negative strong association between the amount of
hours spent on Facebook and the students' Major Subject Long Test. This suggests that the more time
students spend on Facebook, the lower their major lengthy exam results will be.
