Read more about applying transformations in R.

Read more about performing the non-parametric equivalent statistics in the rstatix package:

  • wilcox_test() as the non-parametric equivalent of the independent samples t-test (note: this is synonymous of the Mann-Whitney U test)

  • sign_test() as the non-parametric equivalent of the dependent samples t-test

  • kruskall_test() as the non-parametric equivalent of the one-way ANOVA

  • friedman_test() as the non-parametric equivalent of the one-way repeated measures ANOVA
