Hi every one, How is it possible to create a matrix with 3 dimensions from several 2 dimensional matrice? Is it possible that each of "elementary/building block" matrices could be called by its corresponding original name? Thanks alot. -- View this message in context:

Hi everyone. Newbie to statistics.

Hi all, I want to do this: B.list$aa= (a loop containing My.fun acting on the reults of second function on a A.list$aa)) or, overally B.list$aa = function (A.list$aa) B.list and A.list has many sublists aa, ab and.... Is there a way I can apply the function and loop on all sublists of A.list and get B.list? Thanks in advance. -- View this message in context:

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))

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 =

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???

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

Hi all, Is there a convenient way to calculate Spearman correlation coefficients in R?

Hallo, does anybody know if there is an implementation of the Spearman rank correlation in R that gives a correct (or at least 'safe') p-value in the case of ties?? I have browsed the R-help archives but I found nothing. Thanks a lot in advance for any help, Antonino Casile

Hello, I would like to do a PCA with dudi.pca or PCA, but also with the use of Spearman or Kendall correlations Is it possible ? Otherwise, how can I do, according to you ? Thanking you in advance Eric Bourgade RTE France [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

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'm currently trying to find/define a relationship between one dependent and several independant variables. The problem 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

Hi, I am not really familiar with Correlation foundations, although I read a lot. So maybe if someone kindly help me to interpret the following results. I had the following R commands: correlation <-cor( vector_CitationProximity , vector_Impact, method = "spearman", use="na.or.complete") cor_test<-cor.test(vector_CitationProximity, vector_Impact,

Dear R maintainers, R is great. Now that I have that out of the way, I believe I have encountered a bug, or at least an inconsistency, in how Spearman and Kendall rank correlations are handled. Specifically, cor() and cor.test() do not produce the same answer when the data contain NAs. cor() treats the NAs as data, while cor.test() eliminates them. The option use="complete.obs" has
