Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test Defined

The Wilcoxon signed-rank test is the nonparametric test equivalent to the dependent t-test. As the Wilcoxon signed-rank test does not assume normality in the data, it can be used when this assumption has been violated and the use of the dependent t-test is inappropriate. It is used to compare two sets of scores that come from the same participants. This can occur when we wish to investigate any change in scores from one time point to another, or when individuals are subjected to more than one condition.

When the word “non-parametric” is used in stats, it does not quite mean that you know nothing about the population. It usually means that you know the population data does not have a normal distribution. The Wilcoxon signed rank test should be used if the differences between pairs of data are non-normally distributed.

The Wilcoxon signed rank test has the null hypothesis that both samples are from the same population. The Wilcoxon test creates a pooled ranking of all observed differences between the two dependent measurements. It uses the standard normal distributed z-value to test of significance.
