# Nonparametric Tests Guide
A skill for selecting and applying nonparametric statistical tests when data violate parametric assumptions. Covers rank-based tests for group comparisons, correlation, and paired data, with implementation examples and guidance on reporting.
## When to Use Nonparametric Tests
### Decision Criteria
```
Use nonparametric tests when:
- Data are ordinal (Likert scales, rankings)
- Distribution is clearly non-normal (heavy skew, outliers)
- Sample size is very small (n < 15-20 per group)
- Homogeneity of variance is violated
