Abstract
A parametric test specifies certain conditions about the distribution of responses in the population from which the research sample was drawn. The meaningfulness of the results of a parametric test depends on the validity of these assumptions. A nonparametric test is based on a model that specifies very general conditions and none regarding the specific form of the distribution from which the sample was drawn. Hence nonparametric tests are also known as distribution free tests. Certain assumptions are associated with most nonparametric statistical tests, but these are fewer and weaker than those of parametric tests.
