Non-parametric tests One Sample Test: Wilcoxon Signed-Rank One sample tests I Non-parametric analogue to the one sample t-test. I Almost always used on paired data where the column of values represents di erences (e.g., D = Y post Y pre). I Sign test: the simplest test for the median di erence being zero in the population
