The Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test

The Wilcoxon signed rank test, which is also known as the Wilcoxon signed rank sum test and the Wilcoxon matched pairs test, is a non-parametric statistical test used to compare two dependent samples (in other words, two groups consisting of data points that are matched or paired). In this article, we explain how and when this test should be used.

The Kruskal–Wallis Test

The Kruskal–Wallis test is a statistical test used to compare two or more groups for a continuous or discrete variable. It is a non-parametric test, meaning that it assumes no particular distribution of your data and is analogous to the one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The Kruskal–Wallis test is sometimes referred to as the one-way ANOVA on ranks, or the Kruskal–Wallis one-way ANOVA.
