This measure is similar to the Pearson correlation coefficient in its interpretation. In fact, a Pearson correlation coefficient estimated for two binary variables will return the phi coefficient. The Phi coefficient is also related to the chi-square statistic for a 2×2 contingency table (see Pearson's_chi-square_test) |
