Main Article Content
Spearman Correlation analysis is a non-parametric statistical method that aims to examine the intensity of association between two quantitative variables. Based on real clinical research in physiotherapy, this article illustrates the theoretical substrate underlying the application of this method. Its objective is to help students, physiotherapists and researchers understand its applicability in small samples and in those that do not have a normal distribution, very common conditions in physiotherapy research, and to clarify the interpretation of the results.
