Abstract
Methods and Algorithms for Correlation Analysis in R
Highlights
Correlations tests are arguably one of the most commonly used statistical procedures, and are used as a basis in many applications such as exploratory data analysis, structural modelling, data engineering etc
We present correlation, a toolbox for the R language (R Core Team, 2019) and part of the easystats collection, focused on correlation analysis
Spearman’s rank correlation: A non-parametric measure of correlation, the Spearman correlation between two variables is equal to the Pearson correlation between the rank scores of those two variables; while Pearson’s correlation assesses linear relationships, Spearman’s correlation assesses monotonic relationships
