1. Correlation Coefficient

(A) Click the Paste Function-Statistical-Correl

(B) Click Paste Function-Statistical-Pearson

(C) Click Tools-Data Analysis-Correlation. If Data Analysis does not appear, then click Tools-Add-Ins and click the top two boxes, Analysis Toolpak and Analysis Toolpak-VBA.

 

2. Data and Spreadsheet for Hypothesis Testing on the Population Correlation Coefficient, Rho

(click me)

(A) Data:

(B) Spreadsheet:

(1) Correlation Coefficient. Click Paste Function-Statistical-Correl (as in 1. Correlation Coefficient above). A2:A6 and B2:B6 are the data. The D5 cell formula or r looks like the following:

(2) Calculated t*. D5 is the correlation coefficient, r. D7 is the number of ordered pairs, n. The D11 cell formula for t* looks like the following:

§ One Tail Hypothesis Test (Left) §


1. Correlation Coefficient

r = S[x - xbar][y - ybar] / [Ö S(x - xbar)²][Ö S(y - ybar)²]

= [S xy - (S x)(S y) / n] / Ö [S x² - (S x)² / n]Ö [S y² - (S y)² / n]

= SCPxy / Ö [SSx ]Ö [SSy ]

(a) SCPxy = [S xy - (S x)(S y) / n])

(b) SSx = [S x²- (S x)² / n]

(c) SSy = [S y²- (S y)² / n]

2. t* = r / Ö[(1 - r²) / (n - 2)]

3. Two Tail Hypothesis Test on the Correlation Coefficient, r

Ho: r = 0

Ha: r ¹ 0

Reject Ho if |t*| > t a / 2,(n - 2)

FTR(Support) Ho if |t*| £ t a / 2,(n - 2)

4. One Tail Hypothesis Test (Right) on the Population Correlation Coefficient, r

Ho: r £ 0

Ha: r > 0

Reject Ho if t* > t a , (n - 2)

FTR(Support) Ho if t* £ t a , (n - 2)

 

5. One Tail Hypothesis Test (Left) on the Population Correlation Coefficient, r

Ho: r ³ 0

Ha: r < 0

Reject Ho if t* < - t a ,(n - 2)

FTR(Support) Ho if t* ³ - t a ,(n - 2)
