Spearmans Correlation Coefficient resources

How to interpret SPSS output for Pearson's r correlation (includes the correlation coefficient and corresponding p-value). This resource from the "SPSS Tutorial Series" is contributed to the statstutor Community project by Christine Pereira, Brunel University and reviewed by Cheryl Voake-Jones, University of Bath. It was developed with sigma resource development funding.

In this video Dr Iain Weir (University of the West of England) explains when you should use SPEARMAN'S RANK correlation coefficient (rather than the usual Pearson Correlation Coefficient). He also shows how to calculate it using SPSS and also a calculator, and how to intrepret the value of the coefficient and test its significance. A written introduction using the same examples is available as a Quick Reference resource at this site. You could also use the Test Yourself Quiz after reviewing this video.
