Abstract

Although there have been separate programs written for computing confidence interval procedures for independent and dependent correlations for some standard statistical software packages, the user must have solid knowledge of the statistical software package needed for their application. Moreover, if the confidence interval procedures are neither contained within a particular software package nor if there is a separate program or routine written to perform these procedures, then it becomes problematic for the user. Therefore, a user-friendly, interactive, stand-alone computer program written in FORTRAN 77, for a Windows environment, computes the confidence interval procedures for comparing independent and dependent correlations. The user simply inputs the necessary correlations and sample size and needs no intermediate or advanced knowledge of the statistical software package.
