Using Bayes to get the most out of non-significant results (2014, background): “If the population distribution of observations is normal, and degrees of freedom are above 30, then the assumption of known variance is good enough (see Wilcox, 2010, for problems when the underlying distribution is not normal).”
Weighing the benefits of studying a foreign language at a younger starting age in a minimal input situation (2008, methodology): “On the other hand, the 3 This is the value with outliers removed by using a robust correlation (Wilcox, 2001; Maronna et al., 2006) partial correlation (controlling for aptitude) between the grammaticality judgement test and starting age is statistical (r – .42, df 58, p .001, R2 .18, power .93).”
A Hitchhiker's guide to statistical tests for assessing randomized algorithms in software engineering (2014, background): “The answer to these questions lies in the use of statistical tests , and there are many books on their various aspects (e.g., [99, 25, 71, 55, 119]).”
Evaluation of disorder predictions in CASP9 (2011, methodology): “The statistical significance of the differences in group performance was assessed using procedures adopted in CASP7,30 that is, the bootstrap confidence interval method36,37 and the DeLong tests.”
Raising language awareness in peer interaction: a cross-context, cross-methodology examination (2012, methodology): “Although the assumptions of the parametric test were violated (i.e. normality and sphericity), it was thought to be an appropriate analysis (see Larson-Hall & Herrington, 2010; Wilcox, 2001): Results from the Greenhouse–Geisser procedure will be reported for main effects.”
Structural Equation Modeling: Foundations and Extensions (Advanced Quantitative Techniques in the Social Sciences Series, Vol. 10.) by David Kaplan (2003, unknown): “Over recent years, robust estimation and bootstrapping procedures have been advocated more strongly in broad areas of applied statistics; Wilcox (1997, 2001) is one of the strongest proponents for far less complex analyses than SEM.”
Evaluation of model quality predictions in CASP9 (2011, methodology): “25 To eliminate bias in the analysis connected with the selection of the association measure, we have evaluated all the data using both parametric and nonparametric inferential statistic methods.”
Linear valuation without OLS: the Theil-Sen estimation approach (2014, unknown): “On prior grounds, this would seem likely since, as noted above, under ideal conditions OLS and TS are about equally good, and under non-ideal conditions, OLS has no known merits in contrast to claims about TS (e.g., Wilcox 2004, 2010).”
THE COLONIAL ORIGINS OF COMPARATIVE DEVELOPMENT: AN EMPIRICAL INVESTIGATION (2001, unknown): “In AJR (2000, 2001), we discussed this issue at length and used logarithms to reduce the impact of these very high mortality rates. In AJR (2005), we went one step further, and, following the information in Curtin’s original sources (in particular Tulloch’s mid-nineteenth century research), we cappe”
A practical guide for using statistical tests to assess randomized algorithms in software engineering (2011, background): “, normality of data) when smaller numbers of observations are available [60].”
The retrospective gambler’s fallacy: Unlikely events, constructing the past, and multiple universes (2009, background): “…we found that the contrast for version was highly significant, t = 2.7, pMCMC .005 — participants estimated a larger number of prior trials when they received the rare version than when they received a common version (see Table 1 for by-item means, medians, and 20% trimmed means — Wilcox, 2001).”
Bootstrapping in Applied Linguistics: Assessing its Potential Using Shared Data (2014, background): “, are robust to) low statistical power and non-normal distributions (Wilcox 2001),”
Modern robust data analysis methods: measures of central tendency. (2003, background): “Wilcox (2001) illustrated how, from a practical point of view, ignoring this latter issue can be highly unsatisfactory.”
