kendall.test: Compute Kendall's tau

In GRousselet/bootcorci: Bootstrap correlation confidence intervals

Description

Missing values are automatically removed. Also compute 1-alpha confidence interval using the method recommended by Long and Cliff (1997).

Usage

kendall.test(x, y, alternative = "two.sided", alpha = 0.05)

Arguments

x, y	Two vectors of the same length.
alternative	Type of test, either "two.sided", "greater" for positive correlations, or "less" for negative correlations.
alpha	Used to compute 1-alpha confidence interval - default to 0.05.

Value

• estimate the correlation coefficient.

• ci the confidence interval for tau.

• p.value the p-value of the test.

• statistic test statistic used to compute the p value.
