Statistics | One example of a correlation coefficient. It is usually calculated on occasions when it is not convenient, economic, or even possible to give actual values to variables, but only to assign a rank order to instances of each variable. It may also be a better indicator that a relationship exists between two variables when the relationship is non-linear. Source: European Union. (references) |

Spearman's rank correlation coefficient or (rho) is a non-parametric measure of correlation – that is, it assesses how well a linear equation describes the relationship between two variables without making any assumptions about the frequency distribution of the variables. To calculate , raw scores are converted to ranks. is a special case of the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient in which the data are ranks, although a simpler formula is often used in calculation by hand:
