independent. independent. Rank tests Rank Continuous data. Rank them. Test is a function of the ranks. Rank tests Rank Spearman correlation (test that r=0) Mann-Whitney U Wilcoxon Rank tests: When to use Rank Continuous (interval or ratio) data Normality assumption doesn’t hold Equal variance assumption doesn’t hold Mann-Whitney U test Mann-Whitney Use with: Two-factor between-subjects design At least ordinal measurement (so the values At can be “ranked”) can This is the “non-parametric” version of the ttest for two independent groups.
