Space Physics
Non-parametric tests are statistical methods that do not assume a specific distribution for the data and are typically used when the data do not meet the assumptions required for parametric tests. These tests are particularly useful in situations where sample sizes are small, or data are ordinal or nominal in nature, making them applicable in various scenarios including those encountered in space physics, where measurements may not always adhere to normal distributions.
congrats on reading the definition of non-parametric tests. now let's actually learn it.
