About

This measure of association requires at least an ordinal scale of measurement for both variables, allowing them to be ranked in two ordered series and then tested to see if one is proportional to the other.

Requires

Y variables and X variables to be compared. Tests with matching Y and X variables are not allowed.

Feature

If one value of a data pair is missing, then both are ignored.

Parameters
