Reporting the wilcoxon signed ranks test

1. Reporting the Wilcoxon Signed-ranks Test

2. Template:

3. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that [Insert Time 2 of Independent Variable] was statistically significantly higher than [Insert Time 1 of Independent Variable] Z = ____, p < .____.

4. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that [Insert Time 2 of Independent Variable] was statistically significantly higher than [Insert Time 1 of Independent Variable] Z = ____, p < .____. Here’s the Data Set from SPSS:

5. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that [Insert Time 2 of Independent Variable] was statistically significantly higher than [Insert Time 1 of Independent Variable] Z = ____, p < .____.

6. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that [Insert Time 2 of Independent Variable] was statistically significantly higher than [Insert Time 1 of Independent Variable] Z = ____, p < .____. This is the ranking of each student on a pre-test compared to a national norm

7. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that [Insert Time 2 of Independent Variable] was statistically significantly higher than [Insert Time 1 of Independent Variable] Z = ____, p < .____. This is the ranking of the same students on a post-test compared to a national norm

8. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that [Insert Time 2 of Independent Variable] was statistically significantly higher than [Insert Time 1 of Independent Variable] Z = ____, p < .____. After running a Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test here is the output:

9. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that [Insert Time 2 of Independent Variable] was statistically significantly higher than [Insert Time 1 of Independent Variable] Z = ____, p < .____.

10. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that [Insert Time 2 of Independent Variable] was statistically significantly higher than [Insert Time 1 of Independent Variable] Z = ____, p < .____. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that post-test ranks were statistically significantly higher than pre-test ranks Z = 4.21, p < .000.

11. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that [Insert Time 2 of Independent Variable] was statistically significantly higher than [Insert Time 1 of Independent Variable] Z = ____, p < .____. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that post-test ranks were statistically significantly higher than pre-test ranks Z = 4.21, p < .000.

12. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that [Insert Time 2 of Independent Variable] was statistically significantly higher than [Insert Time 1 of Independent Variable] Z = ____, p < .____. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that post-test ranks were statistically significantly higher than pre-test ranks Z = 4.21, p < .000.

13. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that [Insert Time 2 of Independent Variable] was statistically significantly higher than [Insert Time 1 of Independent Variable] Z = ____, p < .____. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that post-test ranks were statistically significantly higher than pre-test ranks Z = 21 , p < . 027.

14. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that [Insert Time 2 of Independent Variable] was statistically significantly higher than [Insert Time 1 of Independent Variable] Z = ____, p < .____. A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that post-test ranks were statistically significantly higher than pre-test ranks Z = 21, p < . 027 .

15. The report in APA A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that the median post-test ranks were statistically significantly higher than the median pre-test ranks Z = 21, p < . 027.

16. The report in APA A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that the median post-test ranks were statistically significantly higher than the median pre-test ranks Z = 21, p < . 027. 1 st Note – You may be asked to report the median of each ranked variable. It this is the case go to descriptive statistics in SPSS and select Median. Do this for both variables:

17. The report in APA A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that the median post-test ranks were statistically significantly higher than the median pre-test ranks Z = 21, p < . 027. For example:

18. The report in APA A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that the median post-test ranks, Mdn = 34.5 , were statistically significantly higher than the median pre-test ranks, Mdn = 25.5 , Z = 21, p < . 027.

19. The report in APA A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that the median post-test ranks were statistically significantly higher than the median pre-test ranks Z = 21, p < . 027. 2 nd Note – if the reason you used a Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test is because your data is very skewed or non-normal , just report it the same way but replace ranks with scores

20. 2 nd Note – if the reason you used a Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test is because your data is very skewed or non-normal , just report it the same way but replace ranks with scores The report in APA A Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test indicated that post-test ranks were statistically significantly higher than pre-test ranks Z = 21, p < . 027. Because the data was skewed for one of the variables, a Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test was run and the output indicated that post-test scores were statistically significantly higher than pre-test scores , Z = 21, p < .027.
