Empirical Sampling Distributions of the Product Moment Correlation Coefficient When Bivariate Observations are Correlated
Hummel, Thomas J.; Feltovich, Paul J.
Multivariate Behavioral Research, 10, 3, 321-9, Jul 75
Monte Carlo methods were used to investigate the robustness of techniques used in judging the magnitude of a sample correlation coefficient when observations are correlated. Empirical distributions of r, t, and Fisher's z were generated. A technique for controlling error rates in certain situations is suggested. (Author/BJG)
