Histogram of Difference Scores The difference scores look [abnormally] distributed. The data is [negatively skewed]. The data [does not have] a proper bell curve.

        ylab = "Weight Difference (kg)",

Boxplot There [are] dots outside the boxplot. The dots [are not] close to the whiskers. The dots [are] very far away from the whiskers. Based on these findings, the boxplot is [normal]

A Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test was conducted to determine if there was a difference in OutcomeVariable before Independent Variable versus after Independent Variable. Before scores (Mdn = 75.96) were [significantly] different from after scores (Mdn = 58.36), V = 210, p < .001. The effect size was [large], r = 0.877.
