Read the paragraph carefully and answer the questions given below :
Non-experimental designs known as correlational methods, are research
designs in which neither the random assignment of subjects to condition nor the use
of a control group are employed. The goal is to know the potential relationship among
variables or set of variables. But correlational research designs do not allow the
researcher to say anything about the causal relationship between the variables. It
simply tells us the co-variation between the variables and not whether one variable
causes the other. For example, it is difficult to ascertain whether intelligence causes
the development of social skills, or reverse is true i.e. social skills may cause
intelligence, or whether the two constructs are caused by some other common factor.
A correlation between two variables could be caused by the presence of a third
variable, which is responsible for the relationship between two variables. One way in
which researchers can deal with the issue of a interference of third variable is to
statistically control the variable by including measures of that variable and apply
partial correlation.
