How Do You Set Null And Alternative Hypotheses For Non-parametric Tests? - The Friendly Statistician

How Do You Set Null And Alternative Hypotheses For Non-parametric Tests? Are you interested in understanding how to properly formulate hypotheses when working with non-parametric tests? In this detailed video, we'll guide you through the process of setting null and alternative hypotheses for various non-parametric statistical tests. You'll learn how these tests differ from traditional methods by focusing on data ranks and order rather than specific data parameters. We’ll explain how to define your hypotheses based on what you want to compare—whether it's the medians, distributions, or associations between variables. We’ll cover common tests like the Mann-Whitney U test, Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Spearman’s rank correlation, illustrating how to set appropriate null and alternative hypotheses for each. Whether you're analyzing independent groups, paired data, or multiple groups, understanding how to frame your hypotheses correctly is essential to obtaining meaningful results. We’ll also discuss how to decide between one-sided and two-sided tests based on your research questions. With clear guidance, you'll be able to design your hypothesis tests confidently, ensuring they align with your data and research goals.
