The paired t-test is also known as the dependent samples t-test, the paired-difference t-test, the matched pairs t-test and the repeated-samples t-test. What if my data isn’t nearly normally distributed? If your sample sizes are very small, you might not be able to test for normalit...
Non-parametric testsare used whencontinuous dataare not normally distributed or when dealing with discrete variables. Most widely used are chi-squared,Fisher's exact tests, Wilcoxon's matched pairs, Mann–Whitney U-tests, Kruskal–Wallis tests and Spearman rank correlation. ...
TheWilcoxon matched-pairs signed rank testcomputes the difference between each set of matched pairs, then follows the same procedure as the signed rank test to compare thesampleagainst some median. The term “Wilcoxon” is often used for either test. This usually isn’t confusing, as ...

The formula for the T-Statistic is: − = ff − ℎ ff DF The degrees of freedom define the T distribution upon which the probability values are based. The formula for the degrees of freedom is the number of pairs minus one: = − 1 P-Value The p-value, also known as the ...

(e.g. intervention/no intervention). These classifications must be independent. Paired results (e.g. outcomes for same group of individuals before and after intervention) should be analysed using a test formatched pairs. The chi-square statistic calculated from the table test the independence ...
The correlated t-test, or paired t-test, is a dependent type of test and is performed when the samples consist ofmatched pairsof similar units, or when there are cases of repeated measures. For example, there may be instances where the same patients are repeatedly tested before and after ...
The Wilcoxon test statisticWis subsequently obtained as the sum of the positive ranks. In practice, this test is performed using statistical analysis software or a spreadsheet. What Is the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test Used for? The Wilcoxon signed-rank test is used to compare two related samples or...
