Given below are two statements. Statement I: Non-parametric tests are not easy to use and are rather slow, i.e. they require laborious computations. Statement II: Non-parametric tests do not suppose any particular distribution and the consequential assumptions. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.
- Statement I: Non-parametric tests are not easy to use and are rather slow, requiring laborious computations.
- Statement II: Non-parametric tests do not suppose any particular distribution and the consequential assumptions.
ABoth Statement I and Statement II are true
BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
CStatement I is true but Statement II is false
DStatement I is false but Statement II is true ✓ Correct
Correct answer: (D) Statement I is false but Statement II is true — Statement I is false and Statement II is true, so the answer is Statement I is false but Statement II is true.
Explanation
★Statement I is false and Statement II is true, so the answer is Statement I is false but Statement II is true.
★Non-parametric tests are actually simpler and quicker to apply.
★So saying they are hard and slow with laborious computations is wrong, making statement I false.
★Non-parametric tests are distribution-free methods.
★They do not assume any particular population distribution or its consequential assumptions.
★So statement II is true.
★Therefore statement I is false while statement II is true.
