Data Science Asked on April 10, 2021
I have a dataset. I wanted to do paired t test on it. So I carried out normality test and it showed that it does not follow normal distribution. So I used Wilcoxon test in place of paired t test. The descriptive statistics of my data shows median value of 0 but when I ran wilcoxon test, it gave me a p value <0.05 stating to reject null. Could you please tell me why this discrepancy in my test results?
