Absolutely not. The simplest way to demonstrate this is to consider a measure of agreement - disagreement. If we scored it so that "strongly agree" is 5 and "strongly disagree" is 1, we would get one value of the correlation. If we reverse-scored it, we would get exactly the same value, but with the opposite sign. The strength of the correlation is the same, but the direction of the relation has switched. Another consideration is the fact that the actual strength of the correlation is based on the square of its value. 0.20 squared is 0.04; 0.40 squared is 0.16. A correlation of 0.40 is four times as strong as a correlation of 0.20. But when you square something, you automatically lose the sign. The square of a negative number is positive. So by definition, correlations of the same size but different signs are equal in strength.
No, the correlation coefficient is a measure of the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two variables, and it ranges from -1 to 1. It cannot be represented as a percentage.

correlation
The correlation analysis is use in research to measure and interpret the strength of a logistic relationship between variables.
If you remove certain data points from a dataset, the correlation coefficient may be affected depending on the nature of the relationship between the removed data points and the remaining data points. If the removed data points have a strong relationship with the remaining data, the correlation coefficient may change significantly. However, if the removed data points have a weak or no relationship with the remaining data, the impact on the correlation coefficient may be minimal.
A correlation coefficient is a statistic that measures the strength and direction of a relationship between two variables. It ranges from -1 to 1, with 1 indicating a perfect positive relationship, -1 indicating a perfect negative relationship, and 0 indicating no relationship between the variables.
A correlation coefficient represents the strength and direction of the relationship between two variables. It measures how closely the two variables are related to each other.
Correlation is a statistical technique that is used to measure and describe the strength and direction of the relationship between two variables.

No, it depends upon the size of the coefficient of correlation: the closer to ±1 the stronger the correlation.When the correlation coefficient is positive, one variable increases as the other increases; when negative one increases as the other decreases.
A measure of association. You might be thinking of the correlation coefficient in particular.

When variables in a correlation change simultaneously in the same direction, this indicates a positive correlation. This means that as one variable increases, the other variable also tends to increase. Positive correlations are typically represented by a correlation coefficient that is greater than zero.
The Correlation Coefficient computed from the sample data measures the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables. The symbol for the sample correlation coefficient is r. The symbol for the population correlation is p (Greek letter rho).
The mean (average) is the most commonly used statistic in Psychology. It is used to summarize a group of scores into a single value, providing a measure of central tendency.
A scatter graph can be used to establish whether or not there is correlation and to get an approximate idea as to its strength. But no graph will actually measure correlation.
