Principles of Data Science
Independence refers to the condition in which two or more events or variables do not influence each other; the occurrence of one event does not affect the probability of the other. In the context of statistical testing, particularly parametric and non-parametric tests, independence is crucial as it underlies many statistical methods and assumptions. When data are independent, it allows for more reliable conclusions to be drawn from hypothesis tests and helps ensure that results are valid.
