Question
Chapter 17, Problem 1FP
To determine
Mention the three ways that non-parametric tests differ from parametric tests.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1FP
The three ways that non-parametric test differ from parametric tests are,
- 1. The non-parametric test is not used for making the inferences about the population parameters.
- 2. For any type of distributed data non-parametric test can be used.
- 3. The data that is measured on either nominal or ordinal scale is analyzed in non-parametric test.
Explanation of Solution
Parametric test:
- The parametric test is used for making the inferences about the population parameters.
- The parametric test can be used only when the data is
normally distributed. - The parametric test analyzes the data that is measured on either interval or ratio scale.
Non-Parametric test:
- The non-parametric test is not used for making the inferences about the population parameters. It can be used for testing the hypothesized relations in the population.
- The parametric test can be used with any type distribution, it is not necessary that data should be normally distributed.
- The parametric test analyzes the data that is measured on either nominal or ordinal scale.
