Introduction Widespread use of ranking:
longest river in the world = Nile most popular magazine = Reader’s Digest your favourite ice-cream?
Such data are easy to obtain; no need to rate 31 flavours on a 100-point scale
easy but less sophisticated than interval or ratio scales

no distance datare. closeness of ranking - whatmeans and SDsprovide
Reasons for using: simplicity (who’s
taller?) where basic
assumptions areviolate(Normal distribution, homog’-of-var, infinite score)

Hypotheses tests with ordinal data
Mann-Whitney test for independent samples (alternative to a independent-measures t-test)
Wilcox test - alternative to repeated-measures t
Kruskall-Wallis test - alternative to sg-factor, independent measures ANOVA

In part (a), the scores from the two samples are clustered at opposite ends of the rank ordering. In this case, the data suggest a systematic difference between the two treatments. Part (b) shows the two samples intermixed evenly along the scale, indicating no consistent difference between treatments.
I. Mann-Whitney U-test

Compare two distributions (vs. Ms)
Ho: there is no difference between the two treatments; no tendency for the ranks in one treatment condition to be systematically higher (or lower) than the ranks in the other condition
H1: There is a difference, ranks in one condition are systematically higher (or lower) than the ranks in the other condition

Example 19.1 Sample A: 27, 2, 9, 48, 6, 15 Sample B:71, 63, 18, 68, 94, 8
Calculate U-valuefor Sample A & B, UA = 6+6+5+4+4+4 = 30

Formula
∑RA = 1+2+4+5+7+8=27,nA = n of sample A UA = 33, UB = 7; final U is the smaller of the two Reported as U = 7, p > .05

Assumptions not require normal distributions or
homogenity-of-variances, but does require independent observations
and assumes dependent variable is continuous
Note. if you find many ties (unlikely by chance) than question whether Mann-Whitney U is correct test.

II. Wilcox Signed-Rank test ∑R+ = 6+2+5+3 = 16 ∑R- = 1+4 = 5; select the smaller, so T = 5, p>.05

Original data consisting of numerical scores are shown. The original scores are listed in order and assigned ranks using the standard procedure for ranking tied scores. The ranks are then substituted for the original scores to create the set of ordinal data shown in table (b).
III. Kruskal-Wallis test
compute mean of the tied scores (8+9+10)/3
