The plague of non-reproducibility in science may be mostly due to scientists’ use of weak statistical tests, as shown by an innovative method developed by statistician Valen Johnson, at Texas A ...

It is demonstrated for suitable examples that the test is easy to apply and is at least as powerful as the commonly used nonparametric tests, i.e., the Kolmogorov-Smirnov, the Cramer-von Mises, and ...

What’s important to remember is that while our test will rely upon the frequentist interpretation of statistics, there are other correct ways of approaching the problem.
