ECONOMIC SCIENCE SPECIFIC NON-PARAMETRIC TOOLS
ECONOMIC SCIENCE SPECIFIC NON-PARAMETRIC TOOLS

Summary/Abstract: When dealing with the economic science quantitative approach, many researchers instantly think of resorting to a parametric analysis, be it based on simple or multiple regressions, Bayesian inferences or on other specific techniques. Unfortunately, this is not always possible, as the available data is sometimes, inappropriate for a parametric use. In such case, the non-parametric-based analysis becomes a key quantitative instrument at the disposal of researchers, which it encompasses a large range of items highly useful in revealing the non cause-effect correlational relationship between variables or for statistically testing various aspects specific to such type of data, elements described in brief in the present paper.
