7. Spearman’s rank formula Coefficient = 1- 6(∑d²) n³-n Where (∑d²) is the total of the differences squared Where n is the number of data sets (in this case 10 – so n³-n = 990

8. What does your result mean? The coefficient (R) is a value between -1 and +1 Closer to +1 you get the stronger a positive relationship there is Closer to -1 you get the stronger a negative relationship there is (Remember – the hypothesis) Hypothesis – the higher the GCSE results the lower the number of homeless
