Parametric vs. Nonparametric Tests

Parametric vs. Nonparametric Tests

The Kruskal-Wallis Test. This test is used to compare a continuous outcome in more than two independent samples. It is an equivalent of ANOVA in parametric tests and sometimes it is called one-way non-parametric ANOVA test. This assignment is centered on comparing Parametric and Non-Parametric tests using the Kruskal-Wallis test for analyzing a public health data.

You are also required to describe the conditions under which it would be appropriate to use the Kruskal-Wallis test and specify the assumptions that are required in conducting parametric form of the Kruskal-Wallis test. Apply the non-parametric statistical tests.
