A test in which the distribution function of the test statistic does not depend on the form of the distribution function of the observations. NOTE - If the hypothesis does not explicitly make an assertion about a parameter, the test is sometimes non parametric. Example: Test of the null hypothesis that the observations of a given series are independently distributed with the same unspecified distribution function. 3, record 1, English, - nonparametric%20test
