Abstract

The purpose of the study was to compare the power and accuracy of the Kornbrot rank difference test to classical parametric and nonparametric alternatives when the assumption of normality is not met, the data are ordinal, and the sample size is small. Although the procedure is robust, there was no evidence the rank difference test had power advantages over Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks test.
