Correct answer: B. Non parametric tests
- A. Parametric test
- B. Non parametric tests
- C. Either both
- D. None of these
Explanation
When the normality assumption is seriously violated, a non-parametric test is often preferred because it does not require a normal population distribution. Parametric tests may still be usable when their robustness conditions are adequate.
