Hi, Look at ?cor.test, it does not give you the standard error, but it does give you a confidence interval around the correlation coefficient and a significance test (which is my best guess of what you are probably looking to do with the standard error). You could also get it out of a simple regression if the variables were z scored.
summary(lm(scale(y)~scale(x))) Or since the formula is so simple you could just do: sqrt((1 - cor(x, y)^2) / (length(x) - 2)) HTH, Josh On Tue, Aug 10, 2010 at 5:18 PM, fusun gonul <fusungo...@hotmail.com> wrote: > > How do I get the std. errors of correlation coefficients?
