Non-parametric tests (Chapter 13)

Chapter 13 (Pages 407-416, 431-432 only)

Parametric techniques when we have scaled data (interval or ratio) such as r, z, t, F.

Non-parametric techniques when we have non-scaled data (ranked or categorical) such as Chi-square or phi coefficient.

Chi-square test of independence (conditional probability):
This is the test of two variables (groups) that shows they are independent of each other.

Chi-square test of goodness-of-fit:
Compare proportions.
