Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test
1. Wilcoxon with both n1 and n2 < 10
2. Wilcoxon with both n1 and n2 ≥ 10
3. Examples

Wilcoxon
Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test
Recall from last week:
When we test a hypothesis about the difference between two independent population means, we do so using the difference between two sample means. When the two sample variances are tested and found not to be equal
we cannot pool the sample variances thus we cannot use the t-test for independent samples. Instead, we use the Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test.

Wilcoxon
Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test
The Z test and the t test are “parametric tests” – that is, they answer a question about the difference between populations by comparing sample statistics (e.g., X1 and X2) and making an inference to the population parameters (μ1 and μ2).
The Wilcoxon, in contrast, allows inferences about whole populations

Wilcoxon
1b. Small samples, independent groups
Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test first, combine the two samples and rank order all the observations. smallest number has rank 1, largest number has rank N (= sum of n1 and n2).
separate samples and add up the ranks for the smaller sample. (If n1 = n2, choose either one.)
test statistic : rank sum T for smaller sample.

Wilcoxon
1b. Small samples, independent groups
Wilcoxon – One-tailed Hypotheses
H0: Prob. distributions for 2 sampled populations are identical.
HA: Prob. distribution for Population A shifted to right of distribution for Population B. (Note: could be to the left, but must be one or the other, not both.)

Wilcoxon
1b. Small samples, independent groups
Wilcoxon – Two-tailed Hypotheses
H0: Prob. distributions for 2 sampled populations are identical.
HA: Prob. distribution for Population A shifted to right or left of distribution for Population B.

1b. Small samples, independent groups
Wilcoxon – Rejection region:
(With Sample taken from Population A being smaller than sample for Population B) – reject H0 if
TA ≥ TU or TA ≤ TL

Wilcoxon for n1≥ 10 and n2 ≥ 10
Rejection region:

Note: use this only when n1≥ 10 and n2 ≥ 10

Wilcoxon
Example 1
These are small samples, and they are independent (“random samples of Cajun and Creole dishes”). Therefore, we have to begin with the test of equality of variances.

Wilcoxon
Test of hypothesis of equal variances
H0: 12 = 2

HA: 12 ≠ 2

Test statistic: F = S12

Rej. region: F > Fα/2 = F(6,6,.025) = 5.82or F < (1/5.82) = .172

Wilcoxon
Test of hypothesis of equal variances
S2Cajun = (385.27)2 = 148432.14
S2Creole = (1027.54)2 = 1055833.33
Fobt = 148432.14 = 7.111055833.33
Reject H0 – variances are not equal, so we do the Wilcoxon.

Wilcoxon
Example 1 – Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test
H0: Prob. distributions for Cajun and Creole populations are identical.
HA: Prob. distribution for Cajun is shifted to right of distribution for Creole.
Statistical test: T
16
Wilcoxon
Example 1 – Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test
Rejection region:
Reject H0 if TCajun > 66 (or if TCreole < 39)
(Note: We shall give lower heat values lower rank values)

Wilcoxon
Example 1 – Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test
TCajun = 70 > 66 (and TCreole = 35 < 39)
Therefore, reject H0 – Cajun dishes are significantly hotter than Creole dishes.
