Today I’m going to go into more detail about 6 common types of dependent variables that are not continuous, unbounded, and measured on an interval or ratio scale and the tests that work instead.
Side note: the usual advice is to use nonparametric tests when normality [Read more…] about When Dependent Variables Are Not Fit for Linear Models, Now What?
