Normality testing in Jamovi

[@DataAnalyst4444]

Normality testing of data is important because it determines which statistical methods to apply on your data. Students/researchers/scholars let's gather here, watch this video and learn how to test for normality using jamovi software.

Thanks alot 🙏. Now I know how to interpret skewness and kurtosis. Before I only knew how to interpret Shapiro-wilk results.

Nice, now you know 👍, keep practicing.

Kurtosis < 3 does not indicate " too flat". There are distributions with kurtosis3 does not indicate "too peaked." There are low, perfectly flat-topped distributions with very high kurtosis. Examples of such distributions are given on the current Wikipedia page. Kurtosis measures tail weight only.

Please buy and read the book "Mathematical Statistics with Applications" by K.M Ramachandran & Chris P. Tsokos. You will learn more about Skewness and Kurtosis in this book.
