      Advanced Statistical Tests


        Article Summary

        Some of the advanced features under the Graph Driven Test (GDT) or Hypothesis Test functions are only available for users with a College license, giving them the DataClassroom U feature set.

        Read more about how to get the College features here.

        Once in DataClassroom U mode, the advanced features will be shown in the test selection window, and the advanced-level tests will be included in the list:

        Non-parametric tests

        Non-parametric tests are the ones to choose if you know your data are not normally distributed. You can choose:

        • The Mann-Whitney U test (also known as Wilcoxon rank-sum test) which is a non-parametric version of the T-test
        • The Kruskal-Wallis test which is a non-parametric alternative to ANOVA

        Multiple Linear Regression

        Multiple Linear Regression allows you to simultaneously look at relationships between a single Dependent Variable and multiple Independent variables.

        ANCOVA

        ANCOVA (ANalysis of COVAriance) tests for the effect of an independent categorical variable (IV) on a numeric dependent variable (DV) while controlling for the effect of a third variable (numeric covariate).

        Running tests in R

        The "Try it in R" button takes you to the "Bridge to R" window. Read more about that here.
