RM Assignment 15

This document discusses non-parametric tests and provides details on several specific tests. Non-parametric tests do not require the assumptions of normality and equal variance that parametric tests require. Some common reasons to use non-parametric tests include small sample sizes, data that does not follow a normal distribution, and ordinal or nominal level data. Several specific non-parametric tests are then described, including the Chi-square test, Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis H-test, Friedman test, and Wilcoxon test.

Non-Parametric Tests

1. Chi-square one sample test


2. Chi-Square test for two independent samples
3. Mcnamer Test
4. Fishers Exact Test
5. Kolmogorov-Smirnov test
6. Mann-Whitney U test
7. Kruskal-Wallis
8. Wilcoxon Matched-pairs signed –rank test
9. Friedman rank test

Reasons to Use Nonparametric Tests


1.The underlying data do not meet the assumptions about the population
sample: Generally, the application of parametric tests requires various
assumptions to be satisfied. For example, the data should follow a normal
distribution and the population variance is homogeneous.
2. The population sample size is too small :The sample size is an important
assumption in selecting the appropriate statistical method. If a sample size is
reasonably large, the applicable parametric test can be used.
3. The analyzed data is ordinal or nominal: Unlike parametric tests that can work
only with the continuous data, nonparametric tests can be applied to other data
types such as ordinal or nominal data.
Conditions to apply Non-Parametric test
1. Data not follows Normal Distribution
2. If the given data is ranking data, then apply Non-Parametric test
3. If SD is more than Mean, then apply Non-Parametric test
Non- Parametric Test
Test 1 :CHI SQUARE TEST FOR GOODNESS OF FIT
1. It is Non-Parametric test
2. It is Univariate Analysis
3. Data should be Nominal

Test 02: CHI SQUARE TEST FOR INDEPENDENCE OF ATTRIBUTES


1. It is Non-Parametric Test
2. It is Bi-variate analysis
3. Both variables are Nominal
Test 3 : Mann-Whitney U test
The Mann-Whitney U-test is a non-parametric statistical method for comparing
two groups of sampled data which are independent.
Assumptions
1. The two samples are random.
2. The two samples are independent of each other and so are the observations
within each sample.
Test 4 : Kruskal-Wallis H-test
The Kruskal-Wallis H-test is a non-parametric statistical procedure for comparing
more than two samples that are independent. The parametric equivalent to this
test is the one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA).
Test 5 : Friedman Test
The Friedman Test is a non-parametric test which was developed and
implemented by Milton Friedman. This type of test is used for the comparison of
three or more dependent samples.
Test 5: Wilcoxon Test
The Wilcoxon signed rank sum test is a version of the dependent samples t-Test
that can be performed on ordinal (ranked) data. It is an example of a non-
parametric test.
