Find Proper Test
Want to Know Which Test to Use to Answer the Research Question?
With the help of a number of questions, you can already find out which test is most suitable for your research. Visit this page for the questions and try to answer them.
To make a choice for a suitable test, you can further use the two decision trees below. Look at your research question and hypothesis, then use Model 1 to measure group differences or model 2 for measuring cohesion.
- Decision model 1 (difference between groups)
Model 1 helps you choose a statistical test if you want to compare groups. For example, if you want to know if men score higher / lower on the dependent variable than women, you can use this model.
- Decision model 2 (coherence)
Model 2 helps you choose a statistical test to measure cohesion between variables. For example, if you want to measure which variables significantly affect the dependent variable, you can use this model.
