The table contains critical values for two-tail tests. For one-tail tests, multiply α by 2.
If the calculated Kendall’s tau is greater than the critical value from the table, then reject the null hypothesis that there is no correlation.
See Kendall’s Tau for details.
How is this table caculAted
Larry,
I don’t know how the values in this table were calculated. Usually such values are calculated by Monte Carlo simulation.
