Zero Order vs (Semi) Partial Correlation Test and CI

Description

Calculate the statistical significance of a zero order correlation being equal to a partial or semi-partial correlation using the bias-corrected and accelerated bootstrap method from "An Introduction to the Bootstrap" Efron (1983) <0-412-04231-2>. Confidence intervals for the parameter (zero order minus partial) can also be determined.

pzcor

The pzcor function tests one of the following null hypotheses:

• \rho.xy - \rho.xy.z = 0 (default)

• \rho.xy - \rho.xy.z \ge 0

• \rho.xy - \rho.xy.z \le 0

See pzcor for details.

pzconf

The pzconf function computes confidence intervals for the parameter: \rho.xy - \rho.xy.z. To be used with pzcor. See pzconf for details.
