compCorr: Compute correlation differences and their p-values

Description

This function takes two correlation values (or matrices of correlation values) and calculate the differences between these values (term by term) and their respective p-values by a Fisher's Z transformation.

Usage

compCorr(n1, r1, n2, r2)

Arguments

n1
numerical or matrix of sample sizes for group 1.
r1
numerical or matrix of correlation values for group 1.
n2
numerical or matrix of sample sizes for group 2.
r2
numerical or matrix of correlation values for group 2.

Value

The result of this function is a list with two numerical items.
diff
matrix (or a single number) of differences between correlation values from two groups
pval
matrix (or a single number) of p-values of differences between the correlation values

Details

This function use Fisher's Z transformation from scripts adapted from the Internet: http://ftp.sas.com/techsup/download/stat/compcorr.html http://www.fon.hum.uva.nl/Service/Statistics/Two_Correlations.html
