A simulation study of the parametric and nonparametric Linear-Circular Correlation Coefficient was carried out to evaluate the mathematical distribution the statistics followed. A further study was conducted to investigate the effect of ties on the nonparametric correlation coefficient. Lastly, a com-parison of power between the parametric and nonparametric Linear-Circular Correlation coefficient was conducted with varying sample sizes, means, and distributions.
