Resampling permutation probability values for six measures of qualitative variation.
An algorithm and associated FORTRAN program are provided for six common measures of ordinal association: Kendall's taua and taub, Stuart's tauc, Goodman and Kruskal's gamma, and Somers' dyx and dxy. Program ROMA reports the observed data table, the values for the six test statistics, and the resampling upper- and lower-tail probability values associated with each test statistic.
