Usually, the size difference is not an issue. The concern is about the use of a nonparametric statistical test, such as the Kruskal-Wallis test to test the unemployment rate, which unlikely displays a normal distribution. Nevertheless, one reasoning logic of any is that the sample parental distribution resembles the population parental distribution. That is, when the unequal numbers of parental groups are realistic in the population, it is logical for the test.

Hello, Dr. Mel Could I ask another query regarding CSO? The CSO program may only be used as a form of discipline, I wonder.

Could you perhaps assist me in getting some information about the community service orders (CSO) program verified? According to what I’ve heard, a court may issue a CSO order requiring a person who has reached the age of 14 or older and has been found guilty of a crime carrying a sentence of imprisonment to perform unpaid work for a number of hours up to 240 hours per month while being supervised by a probation officer. Can I refer to those as CSO scheme activities?

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?

I have designed a large-scale survey about the life satisfaction of low-income families in Hong Kong. Is it appropriate to use the electronic survey through mobile phones?
