SPSS FOR BIOLOGISTS:MANN WHITNEY TEST AND KRUSKAL WALLIS TEST

Understanding the Importance of MANN WHITNEY and KRUSKAL WALLIS TEST

MANN-WHITNEY U TEST :

The Mann-Whitney U test is used to compare  the differences between two independent groups when the dependent variable is either continuous, but not normally distributed. 

KRUSKAL WALLIS TEST:

An extension of Mann Whitney U test  to allow the comparison of more than two independent groups is Kruskal Wallis Test.
  • The Kruskal-Wallis H test is a non parametric test.
  • It can be used to determine if there are statistically significant differences between two or more groups of an independent variable on a dependent variable.

HOW BOTH TESTS ARE HELPFUL FOR A BIOLOGIST?

In this video we have explained how to perform Mann-Whitney and Kruskal Tests and what are the differences between them? As in the previous video we perform Exact Fisher test in which we cannot use continuous values,both the tests are the alternative for that.We have the data of Cancer patients with some clinical features and to find out the association between these features Whitney-Mann and Kruskal Tests are being applied.

SPSS FOR BIOLOGISTS: Forecasting Analysis using IBM Statistics

EXPECTED OUTCOME OF COVID 19 USING FORECASTING ANALYSIS Forecasting is basically a statistical approach to make predictions for  the future on the basis of past or present observation.In biological terms, this approach is quite beneficial for the researchers to give predictions about any pandemic situation on the basis on previous knowledge/observation. For instance,We can calculate the substantial number of the patients that are going to be affected using Forecasting Analysis. AIM OF THIS TUTORIAL In this tutorial we try to explain about the current COVID 19 Pandemic situation respectively in Pakistan.We have the corresponding data about the patients per million for 4 weeks.On this basis ,we have predicted the increase in numbers for next 7 days by applying forecasting Analysis For more details about how to do Forecasting Analysis watch the video THANK YOU!!
