Re: CCL:Correlation Coefficient

I would not rely solely on a single statistical measure. There are others such as the SDEP or standard error of prediction. One can also apply bootstrapping to look for bias and/or scrambling to determine if the result is due to chance or not.

 Dear All,
I have a question about Correlation Coefficient of cross-validation. Can anyone tell me how much the value of Correlation Coefficient indicate the result is reliable? Certainly I know the larger the value, the more reliable the result. I want to know the lowest limit of that value. I read some papers that used the Correlation Coefficient value, some values are lower than 0.8, is it OK for present them in journals? Or it depends on different situation or topic? 
 Thanks a lot to you all,
 Holly
