This took my lecturer 80 minutes to explain. I simply don't have the patience. People like you are a godsend

[@datatab]

Many thanks!

[@sudharshan.iyengar]

Mine didn't even explain it 🥲

[@Jenny-hv5eb]

I love your explanation! it is so easy to understand and I have never learned stats before so this simplified way of explaining it is much appreciated. Keep making more amazing videos like this!

[@datatab]

Glad it was helpful and many thanks for your nice feedback! Regards Hannah

[@shih-shengchang19]

Thank you, your explanation is very clear and understandable. This video really helps me a lot in understanding the difference between paired t-tests and Wilcoxon tests.

[@juliazhu7885]

Excellent video helped me tremendously! You explained very well.

[@datatab]

Many thanks for your Feedback! Regards Hannah

[@assadnaveed6110]

Thanks for your impressive way of teaching. Stay blessed.

[@emanamrane3158]

The Wilcoxon-Test compares the data between two independent populations not dependent populations. please correct that in your video.

[@datatab]

Thanks!!!

Wilcoxon rank-sum test (Mann-Whitney U test): Compares the distributions of two independent samples or populations. Wilcoxon signed-rank test: Compares paired or dependent samples, evaluating differences within each pair.

Super helpful thanks! Love the visuals too.

[@angelawu6842]

Thank you so much for making this video! I got a conceptual question on taking out the zero changes. Since the test is to test whether the median difference of the two group is zero, wouldn’t taking out the samples with the zero change affect the result? For example, from a group of 100 people, 90 people have zero change, 9 people have positive change, and 1 person has a negative change after the treatment. Taking out the zeros, we would be only looking at the 10 people that have changes after the treatment, but does it make sense to only look at them and ignore the non-change samples? I’ve been looking for the answer for sometime, but I haven’t found it yet. Thank you in advance!

[@anthonydeloach805]

Very good explanation before you went to the Data tab program.

[@datatab]

Many thanks! Regards Hannah

[@veranath6062]

Thank you for the explanation. Keep up the good work!

[@datatab]

Many thanks, I will do : ) Ah you have already found the Video : )

[@manikantareddy1830]

Dear madam, Your teaching is very unique. I liked them lot. They are slow and very clear. I explain very simple and good. I need a small help. Can you please suggest me what statistics I can use for the following. Study type: Survey through questionnaire Simple Random sampling Sample size: 1000 Nonparametric Q1: Whether model lab was useful for learning? Responses: yes / No / To some extant Q2: whether model lab was helpful in preparing for final examinations ? Responses: Yes - No Thank You

[@hannahasomaningdarbah]

Thank you. It seems simple and strait forward by observation, but quite complex in practice. Please, could you show workings throughout the process to allow for participants to fully understand the concept.

[@elizabethgutierrezdelagarz2163]

Thank you very much! Great explanation! Would you please explain the correct sample size for each independent group when doing this test?

[@datatab]

Thanks for your feedback! I will put it on our lsit for a Video!

[@El_Mr_Misterioso]

Extremely useful information!

[@SomeKindOfTease]

Thank you, this helped me understand the subject very well.

Many thanks for your Feedback! Regards Hannah

Thank you so much. You save my life!

You're welcome 😊

[@tolasatiruneh8508]

Show that the Kruskal-Wallis test reduces to the two-sided Wilcoxon test when the treatment group is two (s = 2).

[@Reality530]

Very informative, love from India

[@datatab]

Glad you liked it!

[@ewald59]

thanks for your excellent explanation!

[@datatab]

You are welcome!

[@juverianausheen7420]

please help me out here: null hypothesis in this case states that there is no difference in morning and evening alternative hypothesis states that there is difference in morning and evening so after solving the problem null hypothesis is rejected and alternative hypothesis is accepted?

[@maatalva710]

Yes

[@SohaFayadGanama]

Many thanks your vedios are great and helpful

[@silviaprieto3039]

Thank you for this video! How about the variance? Assume your distribution is normal but your groups' variances are different. Is Wilcoxon more appropriate? Or neither Wilcoxon nor paired t-test would work?

[@kennedyzinn2045]

The shape of a distribution is the manifestation of the population's variance. If both distributions are normal, then the variances are equal.

[@orlinanindita6945]

May I ask? Is there any specific requirements for the diff? What if I find the diff by subtracting morning with evening? Will it affect the answer? Thank you.

[@datatab]

I only know this one: The Wilcoxon sign test assumes independence, therefore the paired observations are randomly and independently drawn. Please find more here: datatab.net/tutorial/wilcoxon-test

[@lradha3719]

You said, "If there is no difference between morning and evening the positive and negative ranks should be approximately equal," but there is a significant difference between them as I see. Then how is the null hypothesis is true?

[@ralaiarimananafelanaanita2445]

Thank you so much, it really helped

Thanks for your nice Feedback!

Perfektes video

[@saniyashinde5983]

Hi I had a question while calculating the test statistic why is the minimum of T+ and T- considered and why not the maximum value

[@cezreycor]

Shouldn't -6 be ranked #1 in the reaction time example? It was given a rank of #5.

[@airis91]

I just realized it is actually the absolute value |x| not just the numerical value as mentioned in the video. so by calculation, this video is actually correct.

[@hennymargheriti]

thank you for your video, you explained it well!

[@datatab]

Many thanks for your nice feedback! Regards Hannah

[@tazzaf989]

Hi I’m conducting a mixed methods action research. For my data analysis I am using pre and post questionnaires and 3 students essays to assess their use of mind maps. I had 18 participants. Is Wilcoxons test appropriate for this? For example comparison between the three essays?

[@bartul5645]

Effect size number of pairs or number of observations?

[@naoremanand]

Kindly make a video on how to transform non normal data to normal data so that we can use parametric test. Thanks in advance.

[@datatab]

I will put it on the to-do list : )

[@tamaraharutyunyan2294]

Thank you for the video. Could you please clarify the following question as well: in this example the test was two-tailed, therefore it appears to be alpha/2 (i.e. 0.025) at each tail. When you get your p-value, do you compare it to 0.025 as you would do for the two-tailed t-test or to 0.05 (and why to 0.05 if so)? Hope this is not the most illiterate question))

How to do the Wilcoxon test for two groups and a within-subjects design.

[@datatab]

Oh, I think there is no test for this! At least as far as I know! Sorry! Regards Hannah

[@KOKWANXIN]

what if we get same value for example both -5, when we minus the data value with the median? how should we rank it ..both '1'?

[@fabricioamonteiro]

Muito bom!! Obrigado!

Amazing

[@eliasandersson1522]

I can't seem to find a difference between "position" and "rank" that gives me an "exact" answer? Anyone able to help me understand? :/

[@JOMAR-kr8vo]

the smallest value is -6and not -2 when ranking .

[@datatab]

Oh, many thanks!!! I will have a look at it!

[@kingshukdutta2064]

but don't we check the magnitude while arranging?

[@quakewakey]

It's a matter of absolute values, that is in other terms, the value based on the distance to 0. -2 is closer to 0 than -6, hence why -6 doesn't get rank 1.

[@airis91]

it is actually the absolute value |x| not just the numerical value as mentioned in the video. so by calculation, this video is actually correct.

[@aayushanand4687]

How are we using standard deviation formula?

[@cherrydale4486]

How you calculate this using Statcrunch?

[@datatab]

Oh, unfortunately I don't know that!

[@milkbear9731]

How is the expected value of W calculated?

[@mohanakrishnan4534]

[@manarsabry3026]

-6 is smaller than -2
