    1. AAre more conservative
    2. BHave less statistical power
    3. CAre less likely to accept the alternative hypothesis
    4. DAll of the above
  2. 2A researcher measured leadership skills in doctors, police officers and accountants. The data were skewed. What is the most appropriate test to analyse the data?

    2. BFriedman test
    3. CWilcoxon test
    4. DMann-whitney test
  3. 3The results of the test used to analyze the data described in question 2 showed a significant result. How should the researcher carry out post-hoc tests?

    2. BCompare groups using Wilcoxon test
    3. CCompare groups using t-Test
    4. DNon of the above. Post-hoc analyses can not be carried out with non-parametric data

    2. BThe weight of the participants did significantly changed during the diet, x2 (3) = .60, p > .05
    3. CThe weight of the participants did not significantly change during the diet, x2 (3) = .60, p = .90
