Spearman's is pretty much the same as yours. If you'd divided by four and subtracted it from 1 I think you'd have had spearman's. If you are doing no further analysis than you did then this is suitable since the ordering will be the same as spearman, you just won't be able to do as useful things as saying -1 is revere related (ie opposite order, etc.
Oh, actually I think you square rooted as well didn't you. Ah well, the ranking is definitely the same anyway. :)
