I'm working on a paper for my county bird report.
I've worked out the correlation coefficients between various sets of data and now I need to work out whether or not they are statistically significant (p-test). I cannot find the formula for the p-test on Google, despite a lot of searching. Could anyone point me in the right direction (or send me the formula), please?
(I'm correlating various people's data on the number of different species observed each month in their chosen study tetrads. It's interesting how much variance there is, even within a small county like Surrey. Even year-on-year in my own tetrad the correlation does not seem to be as great as one might expect. Which is one reason that birding is so fascinating, I guess!)
