Even if the data are distributed normally, nonparametric methods are often almost as powerful as parametric methods. Choose a web site to get translated content where available and see local events and offers. Nonparametric statistics uses data that is often ordinal, meaning it does not. The standard nonparametric randomization and permutation testing ideas are developed at an accessible level, using practical examples from functional neuroimaging, and the extensions for multiple comparisons described. The analysis of covariance is a combination of an anova and a regression analysis.
