# Variable 1: age
# The variable looks normally distributed.
# The data is symmetrical.
# The data has a proper bell curve.

# A Pearson correlation was conducted to test the relationship between age (M = 35.33, SD = 11.45) and education (M = 13.83, SD = 2.61).

# There was a statistically significant relationship between the two variables, r(148) = .52, p < .001

# The relationship was positive  and strong.

# As age increased, education increased.
