Is F-Test parametric or non-parametric?
Parametric.
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.
How do you know whether data requires you to use a parametric or non parametric test?
Parametric tests assume that your data are normally distributed (i.e. follow a classic bell-shaped "Gaussian" curve). Non-parametric tests make no assumption about the shape of the distribution.
Is parametric test stronger than nonparametric test?
If the distribution is parametric then yes.
What is Parametric and Non-Parametric Statistics?
In parametric statistics, the variable of interest is distributed according to some distribution that is determined by a small number of parameters. In non-parametric statistics there is no underlying parametric distribution. In both cases, it is possible to look at measures of central tendency (mean, for example) and spread (variance) and, based on these, to carry out tests and make inferences.

The data you are comparing is both parametric for one set and non-parametric for another Is there anything that can test this?
Parametric for one set?! Yeah
Example of parametric test?
The Fisher F-test for Analysis of Variance (ANOVA).
The Binomial Test is a parametric statistical test?
Binomial is a non- parametric test. Since this binomial test of significance does not involve any parameter and therefore is non parametric in nature, the assumption that is made about the distribution in the parametric test is therefore not assumed in the binomial test of significance. In the binomial test of significance, it is assumed that the sample that has been drawn from some population is done by the process of random sampling. The sample on which the binomial test of significance is conducted by the researcher is therefore a random sample.

Is Paired samples T-test an example of nonparametric tests?
A paired samples t-test is an example of parametric (not nonparametric) tests.
Is parametric test stronger than nonparametric test?
If the distribution is parametric then yes.

Define parametric and non parametric tests?

What are the three differences between parametric and non-parametric statistics?
1. A nonparametric statistic has no inference 2. A nonparametric statistic has no standard error 3. A nonparametric statistic is an element in a base population (universe of possibilities) where every possible event in the population is known and can be characterized * * * * * That is utter rubbish and a totally irresponsible answer. In parametric statistics, the variable of interest is distributed according to some distribution that is determined by a small number of parameters. In non-parametric statistics there is no underlying parametric distribution. With non-parametric data you can compare between two (or more) possible distributions (goodness-of-fit), test for correlation between variables. Some test, such as the Student's t, chi-square are applicable for parametric as well as non-parametric statistics. I have, therefore, no idea where the previous answerer got his/her information from!
Distinguish between parameteric statistics and non - parameteric statistics?
The simplest answer is that parametric statistics are based on numerical data from which descriptive statistics can be calculated, while non-parametric statistics are based on categorical data. Takes two example questions: 1) Do men live longer than women, and 2), are men or women more likely to be statisticians. In the first example, you can calculate the average life span of both men and women and then compare the two averages. This is a parametric test. But in the second, you cannot calculate an average between "man" and "woman" or between "statistician" or "non-statistician." As there is no numerical data to work with, this would be a non-parametric test. The difference is vitally important. Because inferential statistics require numerical data, it is possible to estimate how accurate a parametric test on a sample is compared to the relevant population. However, it is not possible to make this estimation with non-parametric statistics. So while non-parametric tests are still used in many studies, they are often regarded as less conclusive than parametric statistics. However, the ability to generalize sample results to a population is based on more than just inferential statistics. With careful adherence to accepted random sampling, sample size, and data collection conventions, non-parametric results can still be generalizable. It is just that the accuracy of that generalization can not be statistically verified.
