EXACT PROBABILITIES FOR THE WILCOXON SIGNED RANK TEST

Abstract

A compact set of tables and a simple algorithm for using these tables to compute exact null probabilities of the Wilcoxon signed rank test is presented. The tables supplied permit the computation of any null probability when the sample size is less than or equal to 35. Null probabilities for values of the test statistic = or < 299 or greater than (n(n+1)/2) - 299, where n is the sample size, can be obtained from these tables for any sample size.
