Morphology
intercorrelation = correlation (transparent) = inter + correlate + ion
Formed by the productive prefix 'inter-' + the noun 'correlation', yielding the expected meaning 'a correlation between or among (things)'.
Etymology
Intercorrelation joins inter- ('between') and correlation, which comes from the common word 'relation' meaning 'a connection between things'. So, an intercorrelation is a connection 'between' two or more things, often used for 'variables' in studies to show how they change together.
