similar to: spearman rank correlation

Hi list Is there a possibility to filter certain values out of an R output? In my case: I want to create a vector of p-values in a for loop that invokes for every increment cor.test() on two vectors. I haven't found a way yet to tell cor.test() to only return the p- values instead of the whole text. Thanks, Tobi

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 =

I tried 2 methods to estimate C.I. of correlation coefficient of variables x and y: > 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) #METHOD 1: Pearson's ********************************************************** > cor.test(x, y, method = "pearson", conf.level = 0.95) Pearson's

hi: still experimenting. is there a function that tells me what an S object is, or how it is constructed? s <- cor.test ( x, y ); s$estimate$name = 'correlation' ; <- try to rename 'cor' to 'correlation' fails. obviously, name is not a part here. s$newfield = c("another info field", 3.2 ) ; <- this is not congruous so what.is(s) #tells

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

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

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, 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

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 If I get a p-value less than 0.05 does that mean there is a significant relation between the 2 ranked lists? Sometimes I get a low correlation such as 0.3 or even 0.2 and the p-value is so low , such as 0.000001 , does that mean it is significant also? and would that be interpreted as significant low positive correlation or significant moderate positive correlation? Also,can R calculate the

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

I"ve got a data frame with a selection of columns I want to compute a rank-order correlation matrix from without disturbing the original data frame. foo[,c("a","b","d","f","g")] What I wanted to do, intuitively, was: > cor(rank(foo[,c("a","b","d","f","g")])) but rank in that context

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

Full_Name: Marek Ancukiewicz Version: 2.10.1 OS: Linux Submission from: (NULL) (74.0.49.2) Both cor() and cor.test() incorrectly handle ordered variables with method="kendall", cor() incorrectly handles ordered variables for method="spearman" (method="person" always works correctly, while method="spearman" works for cor.test, but not for cor()).

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 am not sure which kind of test is applied to the data if you use cor.test(x, y) ? Is it an unpaired t-Test? Regards -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/cor.test%28x%2Cy%29-tp22492993p22492993.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

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]]

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
