    In this study author classifies the correlations of finite Desarguesian planes. It is shown that in \(PG(2,q^{2n})\), the correlations defined by diagonal matrices, with companion automorphism \((q^{m})\), where \((m,2n)=1\), have a certain number of absolute points according to \(n\) odd or even. The author also discusses the equivalence classes into which these correlations fall, as well as the configurations of their sets of absolute points.
