Dear Achim,

Many thanks indeed. Yes, I had thought about this too and, fortunately, the 
bootstrapping confirms the results from the "normal" test. However, I was 
wondering whether it is mathematically acceptable to report the pvals from 
bootstrapping, but non-bootstrapped correlation coefficients. Does someone have 
an opinion on this?

Best,
Christine

Christine,

thanks for the example. As far as I can see, the "coin" package does not 
explicitly compute Spearman's rho. This is probably also the reason why it 
isn't reported in the test output. Thus, you would have to do this "by hand" 
using cor(..., method = "spearman").

Hope that helps,
Achim
