- 5When there are an equal number of similar and dissimilar pairsthe value of these statistics will be equal to 0.00, indicating no association between the independent and dependent variables
- 6As the number of similar relative to dissimilar pairs increasingsthe value moves closer to 1.00
- 7In a positive relationship, the scores of respondents tend to fall alonga diagonal from upper left to lower right
- 8In the case of gammawe predict the order of pairs of respondents rather than a score on the dependent variable
- 9Gamma ignorestied pairs of cases and is based only on pairs that inherently reflect a relationship between the variables
- 10To compute Spearman's Rho, cases are firstranked from high to low on each variable and then the ranks are manipulated to produce the final measure
