Hi, I'm trying to get a definitive answer about this:
Suppose you have two binary random variables, and you get some data from them: X Y ---- 0 0 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 When you are calculating the correlation coefficient of these two, do you count the multiple occurances of the (1,1) and (0,0) pairs, or just use them once? Please respond by email. thanks, -Galen . . ================================================================= Instructions for joining and leaving this list, remarks about the problem of INAPPROPRIATE MESSAGES, and archives are available at: . http://jse.stat.ncsu.edu/ . =================================================================
