Parametric and non-parametric tests for the comparison of two samples which both include paired and unpaired observations

Derrick, Ben; White, Paul; Toher, Deirdre

Abstract

Samples that include both independent and paired observations cause a dilemma for researchers that covers the full breadth of empirical research. Parametric approaches for the comparison of two samples using all available observations are considered, under normality and non-normality. These approaches are compared to naive and newly proposed non-parametric alternatives.
