This paper clarifies the distinctions among parametric, non-parametric, and distribution free statistical tests. The principal circumstances prompting the use of nonparametric procedures, both rank order and qualitative data Techniques, are identified and illustrated. Historical factors and disciplinary orientations affecting the use of nonparametric procedures are discussed. Finally, some conditions which are conducive to the more frequent use of nonparametric statistics are identified.
