Definition

A reciprocal empirical relationship between two variables or conditions in which variation in each is associated with variation in the other over time or across contexts such that changes in A predict changes in B and changes in B predict changes in A; the term describes observed mutual association and does not by itself establish the mechanisms of influence or causation.
