The choice of statistical test for hypothesis testing depends on several factors, including the type of data (nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio), the sample size, the number of samples (one sample, two samples, paired), and whether the data distribution is normal. For example, a t-test is used for comparing the means of two groups when the data is normally distributed, while a Chi-square test is suitable for categorical data to test the relationship between two variables. It’s important to choose the right test to ensure the validity of your hypothesis testing results.
