1. Non parametric test - Mood's Median test for the following data
11,15,9,4,34,17,18,14,12,13,26,31
34,31,35,29,28,12,18,30,14,22,10,29, Significance Level `alpha=0.05` and One-tailed testSolution:A | B |

Step-1:Calculate total Median of combination of 2 samples
Sorting of cobmined samples
`4,9,10,11,12,12,13,14,14,15,17,18,18,22,26,28,29,29,30,31,31,34,34,35`
`n=24`
Median `= (12^(th) "term" + 13^(th) "term" )/2=(18 + 18)/2= 18`
Step-2:Create a `2 xx 2` contingency table whose first row consists of the number of elements in each sample that are greater than Median and second row consists of the number of elements in each sample that are less than or equal to Median
| Sample A | Sample B | Total |
`>` Median | 3 | 8 | 11 |
`<=` Median | 9 | 4 | 13 |
Total | 12 | 12 | 24 |
Step-3:Perform a chi-square test of independence
Step-1:State the hypothesis
`H_0`: two categories variables are independent.
`H_1`: two categories variables are not independent.
Step-2:Observed Frequencies
| `B_1` | `B_2` | Total |
`A_1` | 3 | 8 | 11 |
`A_2` | 9 | 4 | 13 |
Total | 12 | 12 | 24 |
Step-3:Expected Frequencies Steps
`E_(1,1)=(3-5.5)^2/5.5=1.1364`
`E_(1,2)=(8-5.5)^2/5.5=1.1364`
`E_(2,1)=(9-6.5)^2/6.5=0.9615`
`E_(2,2)=(4-6.5)^2/6.5=0.9615`
Step-3:Expected Frequencies
| `B_1` | `B_2` | Total |
`A_1` | 5.5 | 5.5 | 11 |
`A_2` | 6.5 | 6.5 | 13 |
Total | 12 | 12 | 24 |
Step-4: Compute Chi-square
`chi^2=sum (O_(ij)-E_(ij))^2/(E_(ij))`
`=(3-5.5)^2/5.5+(8-5.5)^2/5.5+(9-6.5)^2/6.5+(4-6.5)^2/6.5`
`=6.25/5.5+6.25/5.5+6.25/6.5+6.25/6.5`
`=1.1364+1.1364+0.9615+0.9615`
`=4.1958`
Step-5: Compute the degrees of freedom (df).
`df=(2-1)*(2-1)=1`
Step-6:for 1 df, `p(chi^2>=4.1958)=0.0405`
Since the p-value(0.0405) < `alpha(0.05)` (one-tailed test), we reject the null hypothesis `H_0`.
