RANK TESTS OF PARTIAL CORRELATION

Spearman’s Rank Correlation Tests (Simulation)

2. Generate a random sample of points (X, Y) from the bivariate distribution specified by the alternative hypothesis. Calculate the test statistic from the simulated data and determine if the null hypothesis is accepted or rejected. These samples are used to calculate the power of the test. In the case of paired data, the individual values are simulated are constructed so that they exhibit the ...

Some Locally Most Powerful Rank Tests For Correlation

Geometry of rank tests

We study partitions of the symmetric group which have desirable geometric properties. The statistical tests defined by such partitions involve counting all permutations in the equivalence classes. These permutations are the linear extensions of partially ordered sets specified by the data. Our methods refine rank tests of non-parametric statistics, such as the sign test and the runs test, and a...

Comparison of Permutation Methods for the Partial Correlation and Partial Mantel Tests

This study compares empirical type I error and power of different permutation techniques that can be used for partial correlation analysis involving three data vectors and for partial Mantel tests. The partial Mantel test is a form of first-order partial correlation analysis involving three distance matrices which is widely used in such fields as population genetics, ecology, anthropology, psyc...
