Sign test   show
🗑
show Minus that data if the second condition from the first condition. If the answer is positive, that category is awarded a plus, if it is negative, that category is awarded a minus  
🗑
How the sign test is calculated   show
🗑
show What level of measurement is it? (Nominal, ordinal, or interval) Is it testing correlation or difference? (Correlation is 2 continuous variables, correlation is multiple catagories) What experimental design is it? (Related or unrelated)  
🗑
show Chi squared - related Sign test - unrelated  
🗑
show Mann Whitney - related Wilcoxon - unrelated Spearman’s rank - association  
🗑
show Unrelated t-test - related Related t-test - unrelated Pearson’s R - association  
🗑
Acronym for tests   show
🗑
Wilcoxon test   show
🗑
show Tests that make assumptions about the population distribution from which a sample is drawn  
🗑
show Tests that make no assumptions about sample size or if observed data is quantitative  
🗑
show Minus latter data from initial data and rank differences, excluding zeros, add pluses together, minuses together, smallest of those 2 values is T (OV), the total number of values is N which is used to find critical data and compare to calculate value  
🗑
show A non-parametric test of difference for independent groups design using ordinal data to calculate difference between two populations  
🗑
show Two calculated U values are found for each population, the smallest one is selected. The critical value is found by looking at the number of each population on the table  
🗑
show Used for categoric data to see if the observed data matches with expected data. Degrees of freedom are number of categories minus 1 x number of rows minus 1 and X^2 must be greater than or equal to the critical value  
🗑
T-test   show
🗑
show They’re the same test with the same calculation except for how the critical value is calculated and what type of experimental design they’re used for. The value of t must be greater than or equal to the critical valye  
🗑
show They are both used to establish correlation between 2 continuous variables except Pearson’s rank assesses linear relationship whereas Spearman’s rank can assess any type of relationship. Pearson’s rank requires degrees of freedom  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
