inducing rank correlations

2001-11-01 Thread Atul
I am using Iman and Conover's method for inducing rank correlation in a MxN matrix. I have the following question. Lets say I specify a target correlation matrix as follows: A B C A 1 B 1 1 C 1 1 1 Nothing is wrong with above matrix Now, lets say I specify a target correlation

Now, lets say I specify a target correlation matrix as follows: A B C A 1 B 1 1 C 1 -1 1 The problem with above matirx is that we want large values of 'A' to be paired with large values of 'B' and also large values of 'A' to be paired with large values of 'C'. BUT, we

most software will compute p values (say for a typical two sample t test of means) by taking the obtained t test statistic ... making it both + and - ... finding the two end tail areas in the relevant t distribution ... and report that as p for example ... what if we have output like:
