PRINT Subcommand (NONPAR CORR command)
By default,
NONPAR CORR
displays Spearman correlation coefficients. The
significance levels are displayed below the coefficients. The significance level is based on a
two-tailed test. Use PRINT
to change these defaults.Note: The
Spearman and Kendall coefficients are both based on ranks.
- SPEARMAN
- Spearman’s rho. Only Spearman coefficients are displayed. This specification is the default.
- KENDALL
- Kendall’s tau-b. Only Kendall coefficients are displayed.
- BOTH
- Kendall and Spearman coefficients. Both coefficients are displayed.
If
MATRIX
is used to write the correlation matrix to a matrix data file, only Spearman coefficients are written with the matrix materials. - SIG
- Do not flag significant values.
SIG
is the default. - NOSIG
- Flag significant values. Values significant at the 0.05 level are flagged with a single asterisk; those that are significant at the 0.01 level are flagged with two asterisks.
- TWOTAIL
- Two-tailed test of significance. This test is appropriate when the direction of the relationship cannot be determined in advance, as is often the case in exploratory data analysis. The keyword also controls whether or not two-tailed confidence limits are estimated. This specification is the default.
- ONETAIL
- One-tailed test of significance. This test is appropriate when the direction of the relationship between a pair of variables can be specified in advance of the analysis. The keyword also controls whether one-tailed confidence limits are calculated.
- FULL
- Show the full table. The full table is presented in the output.
- LOWER
- Show only the table's lower triangle. Only the table's lower triangle is presented in the output. The keyword allows table output to adhere to APA style guidelines.
- LNODIAG
- Show only the table's lower triangle and hide diagonal values. Only the correlation matrix table's lower triangle is presented in the output. Diagonal values are also hidden. The keyword allows table output to adhere to APA style guidelines.
- NOMATRIX
- Suppresses the Correlations table. Honored only when /CI is specified; otherwise, FULL is assumed.
