Definitions:

Nonparametric Method

Statistical methods that do not assume a specific distribution for the data, making them flexible in analyzing data without certain underlying assumptions.

Independent Samples

Two or more groups of data that do not influence each other and are randomly selected from a population.

Median Response Time

The middle value of response times arranged in order, such that half the responses are faster and half are slower.

Nonparametric Procedure

Statistical methods that do not assume a specific distribution for the data, often used when data doesn't fit normal distribution assumptions.
