GROUP - RANK CORRELATION COEFFICIENT

S V SIMHADRI

Abstract


A new correlation coefficient, the group rank correlation coefficient r g isdefined and compared with the product-moment and rank correlation coefficients.Formula for rg is specifically derived for the case of 5 group ranks under the assumption of normal populations. A problem is worked out to illustrate the advantages of the group rank coefficient.
