| tau coefficient of correlation | (n) a nonparametric measure of the agreement between two rankings, Syn. Kendall rank correlation, Kendall's tau |
| tetrachoric correlation coefficient | (n) a correlation coefficient computed for two normally distributed variables that are both expressed as a dichotomy, Syn. tetrachoric correlation |
| uncorrelated | (adj) not varying together |
| multiple regression | (n) a statistical technique that predicts values of one variable on the basis of two or more other variables, Syn. multiple correlation |
| phi coefficient | (n) an index of the relation between any two sets of scores that can both be represented on ordered binary dimensions (e.g., male-female), Syn. fourfold point correlation, phi correlation |
