Corelational

/ˌkoʊrəˈleɪʃənəl/ adjective

Definition

Relating to or involving a mutual relationship or connection between things.

Etymology

From corelation + -al (adjective suffix). Derived from Latin correlatio, a term developed for describing mathematical and statistical relationships.

Kelly Says

Corelational studies are actually more common than experimental studies in psychology and medicine, because scientists can't always ethically make people do things just to test a hypothesis.
