hypothesis that there is an ordinal trend of proportions Explanation: goldjournal.net/article/S0090-4295(10)01447-0/fulltext -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 21 mins (2014-10-20 09:54:55 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- It does sound odd, doesn't it! It's used in cases such as when there is an ordinal categorical variable such as e.g. "task difficulty" coded arbitrarily from 1 = "easy" to 5 = "hard". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 29 mins (2014-10-20 10:02:41 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- P.S. What needs to be understood is that we're dealing with ordinal (and not just categorical) variables. |
