Question

>>Determine the appropriate nonparametric test. Weight of a Vehicle and Chest Injuries. Does the weight of a car affect chest injuries in a crash? To answer this question, data were obtained from car crash experiments conducted by the National Transportation Safety Administration. New cars were purchased and crashed into a fixed barrier at 35mph and the chest deceleration data are given below. Which test could be used to find out if heavier vehicles are safer in a crash?

a)Single Sample Signed Test

b)Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test

c)Wilcoxon Signed-Rank or Paired Sample Signed Test

d)Kruskal Wallis Test

e)Spearman Rank Correlation Coefficient Test

Explanation / Answer

Question 24:

Here we have more than two groups to test and we want to use non parametric test so d)Kruskal Wallis Test will be used.

Question 25:

Here we have two independent groups "One is funding and second is enrollment" to compare so b)Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test will be used.
