Does anyone know if this test can be applied to comparing two part-whole correlations? In other words if A+B+C+D=T can the part-whole correlation between A with T be compared with that between B and T using this test? My intuition is that it can't but the original paper (Meng X-l, Rosenthal R, Rubin DB. Comparing correlated correlation coefficients. Psychological Bulletin 1992; 111: 172-5) doesn't clarify this for me.
If Meng's test is not appropriate is there another test we can use for comparing two part-whole correlations?
Thanks for any help,
