Non-parametric tests are statistical methods that do not assume a specific distribution for the data and are often used when the data does not meet the assumptions required for parametric tests. These tests are particularly useful for analyzing ordinal or nominal data and small sample sizes. Because they rely less on strict assumptions about the population from which the samples are drawn, non-parametric tests offer a versatile approach to hypothesis testing and data analysis.
