About

Pair differences are signed and ranked so as to provide a non-parametric version of the paired-t test.

Requires

Y variables and X variables to be compared. Tests with matching Y and X variables are not allowed.

Feature

Where one value of any data pair is missing, both values are ignored.

Parameters

Wilcoxon signed rank dialog

Variables

Select one or more Y variables and one or more X variables (See Selecting variables for details). Output will be produced for each pair of Y and X variables, dependant on the block mode selected.

Pairing

Defines how the Y variables and X variables are compared. (See Performing multiple analyses for details)

Options

Subtitle

Allows you to specify an optional subtitle which will be included in the statistical output.

Filters
