Spearman method to calculate probable error

This formula is applicable when we need the probable error for rho. We use the Spearman method to calculate the value. The formula for the same is:

P.E. ρ =\[0.6745(\frac{1-\rho ^2}{\sqrt{N}})(1+1.086\rho ^2+0.13\rho ^4+0.002\rho ^6\rho )\]

Assumption \[ \rho \]=r

For r=0.5 N=25 we get P.E= 0.14936
