Dear all,

I have a quick question, and I'd love to hear any suggestions you might
have.

I got one dependent variable (body size) and several independent
variables, and I'm trying to figure out which independent variable is
more important in explaining variation in the dependent one (experiments
are not feasible). The problem is that many of the independent variables
are themselves highly correlated. I thought about calculating partial
correlation coefficients, but I'm not very confident with that choice.
Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot!

Jason
