relation
1
to have a measurable relationship
To have a clear connection with something else, so that when one thing changes, the other usually changes too.
Pola penggunaan:
[A] correlate[s] with [B]
Kesalahan umum:
Learners sometimes use 'correlate' to mean 'cause'. However, if two things correlate, they only change together; we do NOT automatically know that one causes the other. Also, in scientific and technical writing, 'correlate with' is usually preferred over 'correlate to'.
Sinonim
relate (More general and less technical; does not specifically suggest a measurable or statistical relationship.)
Antonim
be unrelated to (States that there is no meaningful or measurable relationship between two things.)

to compare data to show relationship
To put two or more sets of information together and check how they are connected.
Pola penggunaan:
[someone] correlate[s] [A] with [B]

Learners may use this transitive sense without an object, saying things like '*We correlated yesterday*'. In this meaning, 'correlate' almost always needs objects, such as 'correlated the results with the survey data.'
Sinonim
match (Focuses on pairing similar items, without always suggesting a detailed or statistical analysis.)
Antonim
separate (Emphasizes keeping data apart instead of bringing it together to find relationships.)

a thing measurably linked to another
Something that has a clear and measurable connection with another thing.
Pola penggunaan:
[something] is a correlate of [something]
Kesalahan umum:
Learners sometimes treat 'correlate' as a countable or uncountable noun incorrectly in technical writing. It is normally countable in this sense (e.g. 'a strong correlate of X', 'several correlates of Y').
Sinonim
associated factor (Less technical and more descriptive; clearly signals that it is one of several related influences.)
Antonim
independent factor (Suggests a factor that does not vary together with the one being studied.)
