appropriate test for comparing Time values [General Statistics]
Hi Achievwin
Sounds good.
The Mann-Whitney U test is one of the Wilcoxon tests. There are two of them that I know of:
Wilcoxon Signed Rank test (used for paired observations)
Wilcoxon Rank Sum test (unpaired observations; this is the Mann-Whitney U test)
Even so, there seems to be a little bit of disagreement about the nomenclature and definitions, see e.g. R's help file for the Wilcoxon test.
What kind of data do you have (is your study crossover or parallel)?
I would need to read some books that go a little beyond Wikipedia
to figure out how/when/if Mood's test provides something more relevant than Wilcoxon variants.
❝ I found that "Mann Whitney U test" and "Mood’s median test" as appropriate, can you advise which one of these tests is more appropriate? Or none of these are right tests?
