Key Concepts

Non-Parametric Tests

These are statistical methods that do not require the data to fit a specific distribution, such as the normal distribution. They are particularly useful when dealing with small sample sizes or when the data are ordinal or not normally distributed. Non-parametric tests provide a flexible alternative to traditional parametric tests by using ranks rather than the actual data values.

Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test

This is a common non-parametric test used for comparing two related samples or paired observations. It is designed to assess whether there is a significant difference between the median values of paired data points, making it ideal for detecting changes in measurements taken from the same individuals over time.

Repeated Measures Analysis

This concept involves analyzing data that are collected from the same subjects over multiple time points. Repeated measures analysis accounts for the within-subject correlation, ensuring that the paired nature of the data is properly handled when assessing changes or differences across time.
