have a contribution to the variance vs have a lower contribution to the variance

Both phrases are correct, but they convey different meanings. 'Have a contribution to the variance' implies a general contribution without specifying the magnitude, while 'have a lower contribution to the variance' specifies that the contribution is less compared to something else. The choice between the two depends on whether you want to emphasize the comparison with something else or simply state a contribution.
