Kruskal‐Wallis Test

McKight, Patrick E., Najab, Julius·2010·The Corsini Encyclopedia of Psychology

Abstract

The Kruskal‐Wallis (Kruskal & Wallis, 1952) is a nonparametric statistical test that assesses the differences among three or more independently sampled groups on a single, non‐normally distributed continuous variable. Non‐normally distributed data (e.g., ordinal or rank data) are suitable for the Kruskal‐Wallis test. In contrast, the one‐way analysis of variance (ANOVA), which is a parametric test, may be used for a normally distributed continuous variable. The Kruskal‐Wallis test is an extension of the two‐group Mann‐Whitney U (Wilcoxon rank) test. Thus, the Kruskal‐Wallis is a more generalized form of the Mann‐Whitney U test and is the nonparametric version of the one‐way ANOVA.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
