    Spearman Rank
    Correlation
    Spearman rank correlation (or Spearman’s rho) is a
    nonparametric test that is used to measure the degree of
    association between the two variables. Spearman rank
    correlation test does not assume any assumptions about the
    distribution. Spearman rank correlation was named after
    Charles Edward Spearman who developed it, often denoted by
    (rho) or as .
    Spearman rank correlation is the counterpart of Pearson
    Product-Moment Correlation in parametric statistics. It is
    calculated by converting each variable to ranks and
    calculating the Pearson Product-Moment Correlation between
    the two sets of ranks. For small sample sizes, the observed
    correlation coefficient is compared to what would result if the
    ranks of the X-values and Y-values were random permutations
    of the integers 1 to n (sample size). The following formula is

    Here are the steps in performing Spearman
    Rank Correlation:
    Compute for the value of (Spearman rank
    order correlation coefficient). First, construct

    variables X and(X)Y (1 (Y) is being the highest and 6
    as the lowest),

    Compute for the value of (Spearman rank
    order correlation coefficient).

    – 0.49
    The coefficient of correlation, = –
    0.49, between the grades in English
    and Mathematics indicates a
    moderate correlation (substantial
    relationship).
