Description

The Correlation coefficient significance test can be used to evaluate whether the value of an observed correlation coefficient is 'close to 0' or 'significantly different from 0'. The P-value is the probability to find the observed correlation coefficient (or larger) in the sample, under the hypothesis that the population correlation coefficient is 0.
