A NONPARAMETRIC TEST FOR THE EQUALITY OF DEPENDENT CORRELATION COEFFICIENTS UNDER NORMALITY
Fumitake Sakaori · Communication in Statistics- Theory and Methods · 2002
A nonparametric testing method for the equality of two correlation coefficients in trivariate normal distribution, namely, one of the variables are common, is discussed. Using a permutation test, we obtain asymptotically exact solutions. The performance of this test is compared with the likelihood ratio test and a method of using the limiting distribution of correlation coefficients.
