Correlation with Fuzzy Data and Its Applications in the 12-Year Compulsory Education in Taiwan

Abstract

In the study, we developed a new model of fuzzy correlation and empirically examined the fuzzy correlation with student test scores in subjects of Chinese and Mathematics. Our sample comprised 419 Taiwanese students in the 12-year compulsory education. We applied fuzzy theory and conducted simulations with the data from Normal, Uniform, and Cauchy distributions to illustrate the efficiency of our proposed methods.
