Abstract
The employment of correlations in various fields of knowledge is nothing new. It has been and is being widely employed in technology and natural science. In the 1920s it was also employed in our country in the social sciences, including education, psychology, and other fields. However, in subsequent years, the field for application of correlation theory was narrowed, as was true, for that matter, of other statistical and mathematical methods in the social sciences. Only in the last few years have correlations, along with other mathematical methods, come to be employed in economic research. Where concrete sociological research is concerned, the situation has not changed, judging from publications; and correlational methods of analysis are, in practice, only beginning to be utilized.
