Topic 1.5
Why might a psychologist decide to use non-parametric tests instead of parametric ones?
The collected data does not meet normal distribution requirements.
Parametric tests are always less accurate than non-parametric ones.
Non-parametric tests require fewer calculations and are easier to perform.
Parametric tests cannot be used for studies involving human participants.
