Hi,
I’m sure this is an easy question for econometricians rather than me as a statistician, but when using non-parametric correlation GRETL gives significance values and only one correlation at a time, but when using parametric correlation,
we get a matrix but no significance values. Correlation values are impacted by sample size; therefore, I use significance to give an idea of the relationship.
I also ask this question as when teaching using GRETL, a matrix for non-parametric correlation would be a preferred output that students can put in a document rather than creating one themselves from individual answers.
Thank you
Alison
