A comparison of the most commonly used measures of association for doubly ordered square contingency tables via simulation
Özet
Spearman and Pearson correlation coefficient, Gamma coefficient, Kendall's tau-b, Kendall's tau-c, and Somers' d are the most commonly used measures of association for doubly ordered contingency tables. So far there has been no study expressing a priority on those measures of association. The aim of this study is to compare those measures of association for several types and different sample sizes of generated squared doubly ordered contingency tables and determine which measures of association are more efficient. It is found that both the sample sizes and the dimension of the doubly ordered contingency tables play a significant role on the effect of those measures of association.
