Kausalität (EN)

Kausalität

Causality means that a change in one variable directly leads to a change in the other, indicating a cause-effect relationship. Unlike pure correlation, causality states that one variable causes the other. Proving causality typically requires experimental designs or other methods that go beyond simple correlation analyses. Even with strong correlation, causality is not necessarily present.
