There are two statements marked as Assertion (A) and Reason (R). Mark your answer as per the options given below. Assertion: Spearman’s correlation coefficient is not affected by extreme values. |
Both Assertion (A) and reasoning (R) are correct and R is the correct explanation of A. Both Assertion (A) and reasoning (R) are correct but R is not the correct explanation of A. Assertion (A) is true but Reasoning (R) is not correct. Assertion (A) is not true but Reasoning (R) is correct. |
Assertion (A) is not true but Reasoning (R) is correct. |
The correct answer is Option 3: Assertion (A) is true but Reasoning (R) is not correct. Assertion: Spearman’s correlation coefficient is not affected by extreme values. This is correct. Thus if the data contains some extreme values, Spearman’s correlation coefficient can be very useful. |
