What is the correct statistical test to use?

I am creating a hypothetical study in which there are two drugs being tested. Thus I have taken 60 participants and randomly split them into three groups: drug A, drug B and a control group. A YBOCS score will be taken before the trial after the trial has ended and then again at a 3-month follow-up. Which statistical test should I use to compare the three groups and to find out which was most effective?

Plant has 2 levels, A and B, for lack of a better descriptor in the question. You have 2 kinds of orders, Falsely executed and Correctly executed. Thus, you have a 2 x 2 table of Plant by Order type, with the number of observations that match each cell. That could be analyzed with a Chi-Square test of independence to determine if order execution is independent of the plant.

What else can I help you with?

What is statistical test of hypothesis?

A statistical hypothesis test will usually be performed by inductively comparing results of experiments or observations. The number or amount of comparisons will generally dictate the statistical test to use. The researcher is basically making a statement and assuming that it is either correct (the hypothesis - H1) or assuming that it is incorrect (the null hypothesis - H0) and testing that assumption within a predetermined significance level - the alpha.

How can one test for heteroskedasticity in a statistical analysis?

One way to test for heteroskedasticity in a statistical analysis is to use the Breusch-Pagan test or the White test. These tests examine the relationship between the error terms and the independent variables in a regression model to determine if the variance of the errors is constant. If the test results show that the variance is not constant, it indicates the presence of heteroskedasticity.


What are examples of parametric and nonparametric statistical tests?

Parametric statistical tests assume that your data are normally distributed (follow a classic bell-shaped curve). An example of a parametric statistical test is the Student's t-test.Non-parametric tests make no such assumption. An example of a non-parametric statistical test is the Sign Test.
