Full_Name: Jan T. Kim Version: 2.1.0 (and better) OS: Linux Submission from: (NULL) (139.222.3.229) The p value in Spearman's test is NA if the length of x exceeds 46340, due to an integer overflow, occurring if length(n) > sqrt(2^31): > n <- 46341; > set.seed(1); > x <- runif(n); > y <- runif(n); > cor.test(x, y, method =

Hello, I wuold like to propose my modifications of the original cor.test to you : I tried to calcolate the correct p-value for Spearman and Kendall's test with ties. Let me know what you think. Thanks you for your time. Antonietta di Salvatore test <- function(x, ...) UseMethod("test") test.default <- function(x, y, alternative = c("two.sided",

Full_Name: Petr Savicky Version: 2.7.2, 2.8.1, 2.9.0 OS: Linux Submission from: (NULL) (147.231.6.9) The p-value of Spearman's rank correlation test is calculated in cor.test(x, y, method="spearman") using algorithm AS 89. However, the way how AS 89 is used incures error, which may be an order of magnitude larger than the error of the original algorithm. The paper, which

Hi All: help(cor.test) claims For Spearman's test, p-values are computed using algorithm AS 89. Algorithm AS 89 was introduced by the paper D. J. Best & D. E. Roberts (1975), Algorithm AS 89: The Upper Tail Probabilities of Spearman's rho. Applied Statistics, Vol. 24, No. 3, 377-379. Table 1(a) in this paper presents maximum absolute error |\Delta_m|, of the approximation for

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 =

Hi, R! Question1: I am trying to correlate two vectors of numbers (two columns of microarray signal values) by using the non-parametric Spearman's rank correlation coefficient rho: > cor.test(V2.Signal,V3.Signal,method="spearman") but I get the error message: Error in if (q > (n^3 - n)/6) pspearman(q - 1, n, lower.tail = FALSE) else pspearman(q, : missing value

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)

Hi, Is there a limit on the number of observations for using cor.test. For example, > library(ctest) > cor.test(rnorm(3000), rnorm(3000), method="spearman") Error in if (q > (n^3 - n)/6) pspearman(q - 1, n, lower.tail = FALSE) else pspearman(q, : missing value where logical needed In addition: Warning message: NAs introduced by coercion I mainly want to calculate

Dear R developers: There is a possible bug in calculating the p-value for Spearman's rank correlation. Line 155 in file R-patched/src/library/stats/R/cor.test.R is as.double(round(q) + lower.tail), I think, it should be as.double(round(q) + 2*lower.tail), The reason is that round(q) is expected to be an even number (the S statistic), so the next feasible value is round(q)+2.

I have computed correlation coefficients for my dissertation data using Spearman's Rho with adjustments for tie scores; however, I do not have access to a way to find exact p's. I have a friend who has R but he doesn't know if it is appropriate for my analysis, given the constraint of tie scores? Can you advise me? Thanks.

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))

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

Arrrrr, I think I've found a bug in the behavior of the stats::cor function when NAs are present, but in case I'm missing something, could you look over this example and let me know what you think: > a = c(1,3,NA,1,2) > b = c(1,2,1,1,4) > cor(a,b,method="spearman", use="complete.obs") [1] 0.8164966 > cor(a,b,method="spearman",

Greetings. There seems to be a problem with the P-value computation in the cor.test with method="spearman". In R1.8.0 (MS Windows) I seem to be getting intermittently nonsense P-values, but the rho's are OK. I can get this reproducibly with the toy example attached where the first use is OK and subsequent calls with the same data give nonsense. (I have also seen the problem

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

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,

In the ouput below, what is the "S" statistic (S = 96) that is used for Spearman? I don't have easy access to the books cited on the help page. Other texts and web sources that I have found use t or z as a test for Spearman, perhaps inappropriately. Can anyone tell me how S is computed or refer to a web resource? I see from the code for that: q <- as.integer((n^3 - n) * (1

Hello to all of you, R-expeRts! I am trying to compute the cor.test for a matrix that i labelled mydata according to mydata=read.csv... then I converted my csv file into a matrix with the mydata=as.matrix(mydata) NOW, I need to get the p-values from the correlations... I can successfully get the spearman's correlation matrix with: cor(mydata, method="s",
