computation of overall rank

Hi!
I have a data set which has responses in rank order. That is,
respondents have ranked 14 items in a list (say leadership qualities)
according to their imporantance to a certain function. I have two
quaries:
1. How do I get overall rank for a particular item for the sample?
e.g.
(A) Take sum of all ranks and then arrange the items in decending
order and rank them again.
(B) Take sum of all ranks and then devide it with total N, arrange the
items in decending order and rank them again.
(B) (Rank1*freqency of Rank1 + Rank2*frequency of Rank2......)/N
2. Responded have answered to a questionnaire that also taps the same
14 items (e.g. leadership qualities) which has anchors as 1=least
important to 5= most important.
Can I compare (correlation -spearman's perhaps) these two (rank and
rating)? if I can how should I proceed - I mean should I convert the
rank data into ratings OR convert rating data into rank data and
compute Spearman's correlation between items?
Awaiting your responses
Swati
