Check out the HETCOR extension bundle on the IBM / SPSS website.
This procedure calculates correlations between nominal, ordinal, and scale
variables, accounting for the measurement levels of the variables. The
resulting heterogeneous correlation matrix consists of Pearson
product-moment correlations between scale variables, polyserial correlations
between scale and categorical variables, and polychoric correlations between
categorical variables. The procedure uses the hetcor function from the R
polycor package.
