When classical methods are not applicable, anappropriate nonparametric procedure can be selected.
One sample: Sign test and Wilcoxon (Signed rank) test
Two related samples: Sign test and Wilcoxon (Signed rank) test
Two independent samples: Mann-Whitney-U test

Nonparametric tests may be broadly defined as either:
Those whose test statistic does not depend upon the formof the underlying population distribution from which the
sample data were drawn - thus the nameDistribution Free
Those which are not concerned with the parameters of a
population.

Make fewer, less stringent assumptions (which are moreeasily met) than classical procedures.
May be used on all types of data
- Qualitative data (nominal scale),
- Data in rank form (ordinal scale),
- Truly quantitative data (interval and ratio scale).

Are generally easy to apply and quick to compute when
the sample size is small.
Permit the solution of problems that do not involve the
testing of population parameters.
May be equally (or almost) as powerful as the classical
procedure when the assumptions of the latter are met, andwhen they are not met may be quite a bit more powerful.

When all the assumptions of the classical procedures aremet it is disadvantageous to apply nonparametric methods,because the researcher will not take full advantage of data.
In aforementioned condition, nonparametric methods willwaste part of the sample information.
In such circumstances some very simple and quick
nonparametric tests (such as the sign test) haveconsiderable less power than the classical procedures andshould be avoided.

As the sample size gets larger, data manipulation requiredfor nonparametric procedures are sometimes laboriousunless appropriate computer software is available.
Special tables with critical values are needed and they arenot readily available as are the corresponding tables forclassical methods.

Nonparametric methods are not assumptions free.
Nonparametric methods are not always quick to perform
especially when a sample is large.
Distribution-free methods are available only for the
simplest experimental situations.

Nonparametric methods are inferior to classic methods andwaste information when applied to numerical observations.(For example Barbara Hazard [1997] ,Statistical Methods forHealth Care Research. p. 100: Other things being equal,
parametric techniques are more powerful... )
This leads us to the problem how to evaluate the
performance of a test.

These tests use the Median and do not assumeanything about distribution, i.e. distribution free
Mathematically, value is ignored (i.e. the magnitude ofdifferences are not compared)
Instead, data is analysed simply according to rank.

It is a versatile and exceptionally easy-to-applynonparametric test.
It focuses on the median rather than the mean as a
measure of central tendency.
The only assumption is that the variables come from acontinuous distribution.
It can be applied even to the Nominal DataNominal Data.

It is useful in two situations:
When test a hypothesis concerning the median of apopulation (an alternative to one-sample t-test), and
To test equality of the medians in the case of twodependent samples (as an alternative to matched-pairst test).
Recall that the value of median is the same as for the mean when a distribution is symmetric
Both tests are carried out using the same procedure

It is called the sign test because we convert original
observations into plus and minus signs. That is, we countthe number of observations greater than the hypotheticalmedian.
When dealing with 2 related samples we count thenumber of times one treatment has a higher value than theother.
Ties are not counted (theoretically, with continuousdistributions, there should be no ties, but with limitedmeasuring instruments ties do occur).

If the null hypothesis is true we would expectapproximately equal number of + and - signs.
If either positive or negative signs predominate, there isevidence that the null hypothesis is false.
As a test statistic we can use number of positive signs.

In an anesthetic used for major surgery, the meannumber of hours it takes for the anesthesia to wear off is 7.

In a series of 12 surgeries using the new anesthetic, thefollowing times for recovery were observed:

Lowest score gets rank of 1; next lowest gets 2; and so on. Two or more scores with the same value are tied, in this case
- Give each tied score the rank it would have had,
- Add the ranks for the tied scores, and divide by the number oftied scores. Each of the ties gets this average rank.
- The next score after the set of ties gets the rank it would haveobtained, had there been no tied scores.

The Median Test is used to test for location differences
between two or more independent populations.
The Median Test does not take into account the distance
from the median.
It, like the Sign Test, only takes into account which side
of the median the observations lie on.

Use the idea of permutation (Binomial with p=.5) forfinding the probability,
E(a under H0)=m/2 and E(b under H0)=n/2.
Ties:
- Observations that equal the median.
- Correcting ties:* Omit the observation and proceed as normal.
* If lots of ties, then split up the observations in away that makes rejecting H0 less likely.

Calculation of Test Statistics: First Step
Compute the common Median:
Combined the Two samples
Arrange the observations ascending orders
In this Example: # of Observation is even
So, The median is: (33+34)/2 = 33.5
