R² is the proportion of variance in one variable explained by another.

The math behind it

R² = correlation coefficient squared; expressed as a percentage of variance explained.

Worked Example

r 0.9 → R² 0.81 (81% explained).

Frequently Asked Questions

High R²?

Closer to 1 means the model explains more of the variation.
