Spearman's rank correlation coefficient — In statistics, Spearman s rank correlation coefficient or Spearman s rho, named after Charles Spearman and often denoted by the Greek letter ho (rho) or as r s, is a non parametric measure of correlation ndash; that is, it assesses how well an… … Wikipedia
Correlation coefficient — may refer to: Pearson product moment correlation coefficient, also known as r, R, or Pearson s r, a measure of the strength of the linear relationship between two variables that is defined in terms of the (sample) covariance of the variables… … Wikipedia
Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient — In statistics, the Pearson product moment correlation coefficient (sometimes referred to as the MCV or PMCC, and typically denoted by r ) is a common measure of the correlation between two variables X and Y . In accordance with the usual… … Wikipedia
Point-biserial correlation coefficient — The point biserial correlation coefficient ( rpb ) is a correlation coefficient used when one variable (e.g. Y ) is dichotomous; Y can either be naturally dichotomous, like gender, or an artificially dichotomized variable. In most situations it… … Wikipedia
Correlation and dependence — This article is about correlation and dependence in statistical data. For other uses, see correlation (disambiguation). In statistics, dependence refers to any statistical relationship between two random variables or two sets of data. Correlation … Wikipedia
Correlation — In probability theory and statistics, correlation, (often measured as a correlation coefficient), indicates the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two random variables. In general statistical usage, correlation or co relation … Wikipedia
Pearson distribution — The Pearson distribution is a family of continuous probability distributions. It was first published by Karl Pearson in 1895 and subsequently extended by him in 1901 and 1916 in a series of articles on biostatistics. History The Pearson system… … Wikipedia
Pearson's chi-squared test — (χ2) is the best known of several chi squared tests – statistical procedures whose results are evaluated by reference to the chi squared distribution. Its properties were first investigated by Karl Pearson in 1900.[1] In contexts where it is… … Wikipedia
Coefficient of variation — In probability theory and statistics, the coefficient of variation (CV) is a normalized measure of dispersion of a probability distribution. It is also known as unitized risk or the variation coefficient. The absolute value of the CV is sometimes … Wikipedia
Phi coefficient — In statistics, the phi coefficient (also referred to as the mean square contingency coefficient and denoted by φ or rφ) is a measure of association for two binary variables introduced by Karl Pearson[1]. This measure is similar to the Pearson… … Wikipedia
Partial correlation — In probability theory and statistics, partial correlation measures the degree of association between two random variables, with the effect of a set of controlling random variables removed. Contents 1 Formal definition 2 Computation 2.1 Using… … Wikipedia
