Hi. I am currently trying to run some Spearman correlations, and have encountered two issues. 1) When using cor.test() with a variable that includes ties, I get the "Cannot compute exact p-values with ties" error. I have read that this function now uses an asymptotic formula that allows for ties, so do not understand why I am getting this error. (I am running version 2.4.0.) I

Hello R gurus, I want to calculate the Spearman rho between two ranked lists. I am getting results with cor.test that differ in comparison to my own spearman function: > my.spearman function(l1, l2) { if(length(l1) != length(l2)) stop("lists must have same length") r1 <- rank(l1) r2 <- rank(l2) dsq <- sapply(r1-r2,function(x) x^2) 1 - ((6 * sum(dsq))

I believe the problem is here: cor1 <- cor(x1, y1, method="spearman") cor2 <- cor(x2, y2, method="spearman") The x's and y's are not looked for in data (i.e. NSE) but in the environment where the function was defined, which is standard evaluation. Change the above to: cor1 <- with(d, cor(x1, y1, method="spearman")) cor2 <- with(d, cor(x2, y2,

R-Experts, Here below my R code working without error message but I don't get the results I am expecting. Here is the result I get: [1] "All values of t are equal to 0.28611928397257 \n Cannot calculate confidence intervals" NULL If someone knows how to solve my problem, really appreciate. Best, S ######################################################### # Difference in Spearman

Dear R-helpers, I would like to do a Spearman rank order test, and used the cor() function with the method "spearman". It gives me a number (correlation coefficient?) , but how can I get the p-value? Thank you for the help in advance! Regards, Anne-Katrin -- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I have a dataset with four categories of data, the number of samples are not the same in each category. I want to find the Spearaman's Rho. Let me give an example. x=(14.22770439,26.49420624,46.7277932,19.02550707,23.37379361,16.97789862,19.77100085,23.11270162,13.72929843,33.54430621,14.4756979,70.15811106,11.22789833,NA,NA,NA)

Dear all, Suppose my data frame is as follows: id price distance 1 2 4 1 3 5 ... 2 4 8 2 5 9 ... n 3 7 n 8 9 I would like to calculate the rank-order correlation between price and distance for each id. cor(price,distance,method = "spearman") calculate a correlation for all. Then I tried to use apply(data,list='id',cor(price , distance , method =

Hi all, I am trying to figure out the formula used by R's Spearman rho (using cor(method="spearman")) because I can't seem to get the same value as by calculating "by hand". Perhaps I'm using "cor" wrong, but I don't know where. Basically, I am running these commands: > y=read.table(file="tmp",header=TRUE,sep="\t") >

Hi, How can I make the cor(x, y, method="spearman") call to produce an error when the input to it (x, y) produces an error? Here is a simple example: > a <- c(0, 1, 2) > b <- c(100, 2, 4) ## error: > log(a) [1] -Inf 0.0000000 0.6931472 ## error, as expected: > cor(log(a), log(b), method="pearson") [1] NaN ## not an error any more (not expected): >

I have a data set where I want the correlations between 2 variables conditional on a students grade level. This code works just fine. by(tmp[,c('mtsc07', 'DCBASmathscoreSPRING')], tmp$Grade, cor, use='complete', method='pearson') However, this generates an error by(tmp[,c('mtsc07', 'DCBASmathscoreSPRING')], tmp$Grade, cor, use='complete',

cor.test and SuppDists give me different P-values for the same Spearman's rho. Which is correct, or am I doing something wrong? > x <- c(44.4, 45.9, 41.9, 53.3, 44.7, 44.1, 50.7, 45.2, 60.1) > y <- c( 2.6, 3.1, 2.5, 5.0, 3.6, 4.0, 5.2, 2.8, 3.8) > cor.test(x,y,method="spearman") Spearman's rank correlation rho data: x and y S = 48, p-value =

Hallo! Is there an error in cor to calculate Spearman correlation with cor if there are NA's? cor.test gives the correct result. At least there is a difference. Or am I doing something wrong??? Does anybody know something about this? a<-c(2,4,3,NA) b<-c(4,1,2,3) cor(a, b, method="spearman", use="complete.obs") # -0.9819805 cor.test(a, b,

...is that i cannot use the normal multiple regression/correlation in Spss because the data is not normal distributed. i calculated the spearman roh and Kendalls tau Correlation and also some partial correlations in R. Now i wanna find out the the multiple correlation coeffcient for Kendalls Tau and spearmans roh and check if it is signifikant. unfortunately i cannot find a way to do that in R. any sugestions? thank you in advance -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Multiple-Correlation-coefficient-spearman-Kenall-tp2063314p2063314.html Sent from the R help mailing list...

Hi, I have just encountered a strange behaviour from 'cor' with regards to the treatment of NAs when calculating Spearman correlations. I guess it is a subtle bug. If I understand the help page correctly, the two modes 'complete.obs' and 'pairwise.complete.obs' specify how to deal with correlation coefficients when calculating a correlation _matrix_. When calculating

Dear R-users: I am runing R 1.6.2 with Windows XP. I try to calculate Pearson correlation and Spearman correlation of any pairwise columns of 8000 x 80 data matrix with missing values and randomize the matix 1000 times and calculate this two correlations again. The code bellow for Pearson is working fine but for Spearman got the error bellow for randomized data matrix and R console is stop

Colleagues, I ran some nonparametric regressions in R (run in RedHat Linux), then a colleague repeated the analyses in SAS. When we obtained different results, I tested S-Plus (same Linux box). And, got yet different results. I replicated the results with a small dataset: DATA: 37.5 23 37.5 13 25 16 25 12 100 15 12.5 19 50 20 100 13 100 10 100 10 100 16 50 10 87.5
