The Kruskal-Wallis Test is a generalization of the Two Independent Sample Wilcoxon Test. While the latter one test for two groups, the Kruskal-Wallis Test multiple groups. Suppose there are k groups, the hypotheses are written as:

-
'''Null Hypothesis H_0''': All of the k population distribution functions are identical.

* Generate some bivariate data (SOCR Modeler or via Experiments
 +
* Do some EDA plots
 +
* Do some analyses (e.g., diff of means, regression, ANOVA, etc.)

* Fit <math>N(\mu, \sigma^2)</math> models to either dataset/variable

* Discuss Model Differences

* QQ (Data) probability plot
-
'''Alternative Hypothesis H_A''': At least one of the populations tends to yield larger observations than at least one of the other populations.

-
Rank sum is employed for hypothese testing. Note that the sample size for each group do hot have to be the same.

=== SOCR Analyses Example on the Kruskal-Wallis Test===
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
The example we show here is from "Practical Nonparametric Statistics" by Conover, Second Edition, John Wiley & Sons, 1980. (Page 230)

'''Steps:'''
+
-
 
+
-
'''1.''' The data of this example has 4 groups: A, B, C and D. Click on "'''Two Independent Kruskal-Wallis Test'''" from the combo box in the left panel.

'''3.''' The data need to be send to the computer for analysis. In the Kruskal-Wallis test, at least two groups need to be included. You can certainly include any two groups, any three groups, or all the avaialble groups, etc., from the data set. The test will only analyze the groups selected. Therefore, you'll need to let the computer know what groups you're choosing. This is done in the "Mapping" panel. Click on the "Mapping" button to include the groups you want.

Scroll down to see complete results.

+
-
If you'd like to include some other group(s) or remove the current groups and start over, simply go to the '''Mapping''' button and take the groups you want.
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
'''Note''': if you happen to click on the "Clear" button in the middle of the procedure, all the data will be cleared out. Simply start over from step 1 and reteive the data by click an '''EXAMPLE''' button.
