The scale of measurement, degree of normality, and sample size (n) determine whether
parametric or non-parametric statistical tests should be employed
8 of 20
Parametric
Data must be interval or ratio scale Data must be normally distributed Number of observations should exceed n=30
9 of 20
Non-parametric
All data that are nominal or ordinal Interval/ratio data that are not normally distributed Small sample sizes (typically

t-test (one sample and two sample) Analysis of variance (ANOVA)

Statistical tests are concerned with rejecting the
null hypothesis in favour of the alternative hypothesis
15 of 20
Null Hypothesis -
H0: There is no statistically significant difference between the means of sample A and sample B
16 of 20
Alternative hypothesis
H1: There is a statistically significant difference between the means of sample A and sample B

You are the one who sets the confidence interval but it must be at
a recognised threshold ( 95 or 99)
18 of 20
Once you’ve set your threshold, if your significance value falls to the left (higher),
you accept the hypothesis
19 of 20
If it falls to the right
you reject
