Spearman’s Rho Test

• Spearman’s Rho is a non-parametric statistical test of correlation that allows a researcher to determine the significance of their investigation.
• The significance level typically used in Spearman's Rho Test is 0.05.
• Spearman's Rho test is used to look at the significant relationship between two variables.
• Spearman's Rho uses ordinal data to calculate the relationship between the variables.
• Spearman's Rho calculates a correlation coefficient which will be between -1 and +1.
• The value of Rho (Rs) must be greater than or equal to the critical value to be significant.
• The correlation coefficient in a Spearman's Rho test tells us the type and strength of the correlation.
• A Spearman's Rho test uses quantitative scores for two or more variables to calculate the correlation coefficient.
