This short video details how to calculate the strength of association (correlation) between a Nominal independent variable and an Interval/Ratio scaled dependent variable using IBM SPSS Statistics. In particular, we measure the Eta statistic for the strength of association.

This was so helpful. I have been trying to figure out how to correlate the interval and nominal data for two for two of my dissertation questions. I am very grateful. :)

Great video. Two questions: can I use the ETA for a continuous variable which is not normally distributed as well? And does it work for all nominal variables (e.g., dichotomous, ordinal)?
@MathsAndStats
@MathsAndStats 3 жыл бұрын
Hi CH. First, and I'm sure it was just a typo, the ordinal variables are not nominal - as they have an order associated with them. With respect to the real nominal variables, they are broken down into two cases, those - as you suggested - that are dichotomous and those that are multichotomous. Here is a link to a playlist I had created that runs through all the possible combinations of variable types and their appropriate correlations (although there are other variants): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/e9Z_pNZ8qK-sfok.html I hope this helps.

@BambiOnIce19

So what about when you want to figure out the relationship between the nominal variable and the scale (for example, no of serious relationships related to a particular personality trait). Like, you interview 150 people, ask them how many serious relationships they had in their lifetime (if any... :) ), and then you also ask them some more questions to establish the strength of each of the big five personality traits. Then you want to correlate the number of serious relationships (nominal value, lets say 0 to 6), to an extroversion trait (that is a scale). How would you analyse that in SPSS? Would love an answer, if you are still reading this post, that is.....

Hi Brian. In that situation you would be dealing with a multichotomy and an interval/ratio variable. The appropriate correlation is known as the eta correlation coefficient. Here is a link to a playlist in which I cover all the possible correlation variants. I think a little into video part 4 should be what you are looking for. kzfaq.info/sun/PLJy0LHDLpgHGQkyy0D8t93mOWil-Z7ETW I hope that is helpful. Regards. Jonathan

I want to find correlation between education levels and electricity bills. The electricity bill is continuous while the education level (primary, middle, secondary, higher secondary and graduation) nominal. Should i go for checking the assumptions of linearity, normality etc or i use only Spearman's correlation directly? Thank you sir.

So I have 2 variables: the first is a scale and says how much hours of sport an athlete did, the other is a nominal one and says whether or not they got injured. My Scale is my independent variable here. But this should still work right? And I can square the Eta and that will tell me how much the variance can be explained by the difference in hours of sport? thank you

Hi Randy. The typical approach is to carry-out a between subjects ANOVA. The significance of that test is equivalent. You would really do this using software, maybe through SPSS or with R. I hope that helps. Jonathan

Unfortunately this technique requires "Nominal" *Numeric* variables, i.e; ones with value labels defined @2:15. It won't work with String (truly nominal) variables. This makes it much more annoying to use, and it sounds like Spearman should be selected instead of Eta for non-dichotomous "nominal" variables.
