  skos:definition "In social science research, the idea of spurious correlation is taken to mean roughly that when two variables correlate, it is not because one is a direct cause of the other but rather because they are brought about by a third variable. This situation presents a major interpretative challenge to social science researchers, a challenge that is heightened by the difficulty of disentangling the various concepts associated with the idea of spurious correlation.
