Kruskal-Wallis Test

Non-parametrik · ANOVA Karşılığı

Kruskal-Wallis Test is one of the statistical analyses applied automatically in MerQur. This page illustrates — on a Agriculture, Forestry & Aquatic sample dataset — how the analysis is run, what the MerQur output looks like, and how the result is reported in APA 7 format.

🎯 What is it for?

Kruskal-Wallis Test, ilgili veri türü için gerekli tüm varsayım kontrollerini (normallik, varyans homojenliği, vb.) arka planda otomatik uygular ve sonuçları açık bir tablo + grafik ile sunar. APA 7 standardında otomatik yorumlama, Cohen’s d/η²/R² gibi etki büyüklükleri ve %95 güven aralıkları raporlanır.

📌 When is it used?

  • Statistical analysis of measurements in the Agriculture, Forestry & Aquatic domain
  • To produce APA 7-compatible result tables for academic publications
  • Hypothesis testing and decision-making processes
  • Undergraduate / master’s / PhD theses after the appropriate method has been selected

📐 Assumptions

  • Appropriate scale — Variables must be at the measurement level required by the analysis (nominal/ordinal/interval/ratio)
  • Independent observations — Observations must come from individuals independent of one another
  • Sufficient sample size — The minimum n requirement for the analysis must be met
  • Outlier check — Outliers must be detected and evaluated

If assumptions are violated, MerQur automatically suggests a non-parametric or robust alternative.

MerQur Narrative Interpretation

Kruskal-Wallis Test, toprak düzeylerinin verim_ton_ha üzerindeki etkisinin anlamlı olduğunu göstermiştir (p < .001, η²p = .31, orta-büyük etki). Tukey HSD post-hoc karşılaştırmaları hangi gruplar arasında anlamlı fark olduğunu belirler.

APA 7 Interpretation (Academic Format · Illustrative)

Kruskal-Wallis Test results indicated that toprak değişkeninin verim_ton_ha üzerinde anlamlı etkisi vardır, F(2, 42) = 24.82, p < .001, η²p = .31. Etki büyüklüğü Cohen (1988) ölçütlerine göre orta-büyük düzeydedir. Tukey HSD post-hoc karşılaştırmaları, gruplar arasındaki anlamlı farkları ortaya koymuştur.

⚠ Common Mistakes

  • Misidentifying the data type (e.g., loading a categorical variable as numeric)
  • Skipping assumption checks and going straight to the p-value
  • Failing to report effect size — APA 7 requires both p and effect size
  • Failing to apply a Type I error correction (Bonferroni/Tukey) in multiple comparisons
  • Not switching to a non-parametric alternative when n is insufficient
