Tóm tắt	Kendall's tau is a nonparametric measure of the ordinal association between two variables. It quantifies how consistently the relative ordering of one variable matches the ordering of another across all observation pairs, making it robust to outliers and suitable for ordinal or non-normally distributed data.	The Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient (r) is a parametric measure of the direction and strength of the linear association between two continuous variables. Introduced by Karl Pearson in 1895, it remains the most widely used bivariate correlation statistic in the social, health, and natural sciences. The coefficient ranges from −1 (perfect negative linear relationship) to +1 (perfect positive), with 0 indicating no linear association.
