Dear researchers, I have MSR (meta cognitive self regulation) learning strategy as independent variable while Students' Score (Students'GPA) is my dependent variable. MSR is on five point Likert scale while for Students'GPA each student put his own GPA on the questionnaire in form of digits like 2 , 2.1, 2.7, 2.3, 3, 3.6, 4 etc. The students score is in random form. Each student put his own score whatever he got in the previous semester. Now my question is which kind of correlation should I use? Can I go for the Pearson correlation? How to handle with the Students'GPA variable? The sample size is 300 students which means that I have 300 Students'GPAs. It's a confusing whether I should consider the Students'GPA as ordinal, interval or ratio variable? Which kind of correlation should I go for? Please, guide.
some variables that I choose for my study are found that have been already used by someone but I found one limitation of that paper is that he determines the small size of the sample (53). I'm just asking, can I use that same variable for my research and only this paper which studied the same sector as mine. I'm only determined one variable from this model sir, not the whole model can I do it sir .

Please, guide.
Yes you can use pearson correlation analysis. As your IV is metric whereas DV is continuous.
Thank You Sir
Thanks. I am glad you liked it.
👏👏👏👏
Glad you liked it.
Thank you
You're welcome. Thanks for your appreciation.
Could you do a video on thematic review of literature in social science research
Hopefully soon

Try to find new variables for your study. Originality stems from new variables
Yes, you can use a variable that you want to take from any specific model.
