#The data is abnormally distributed.

#Interpretation
#The nolift boxplit is not normal.
#The nolift boxplot has dots outside the box.
#There is one dot not close to the whiskers.
#The dot is very far away from the whiskers.
#The outliers are not balanced.
#Interpretation
#The lift boxplot is not normal.
#The nolift boxplot has dots outside the box.
#There is one dot not close to the whiskers.
#The dot is very far away from the whiskers.
#The outliers are not balanced.
#Shapiro-Wilk Tests
shapiro.test(Q4$Weight[Q4$Exercise == "lift"])
##
## Shapiro-Wilk normality test
##
## data: Q4$Weight[Q4$Exercise == "lift"]
## W = 0.78786, p-value = 0.0001436
shapiro.test(Q4$Weight[Q4$Exercise == "nolift"])
##
## Shapiro-Wilk normality test
##
## data: Q4$Weight[Q4$Exercise == "nolift"]
## W = 0.70002, p-value = 7.294e-06
Shapiro-Wilk Interpretation: Lift is not normal (p < .001) Nolift is abnormal (p < .001)
#Mann-Whitney U Test
wilcox.test(Weight ~ Exercise, data = Q4)

## Wilcoxon rank sum exact test

## alternative hypothesis: true location shift is not equal to 0
#Effect Size for Mann-Whitney U
mw_effect <- cliff.delta(Weight ~ Exercise, data = Q4)

## Cliff's Delta

Mann-Whitney U Interpretation: A Mann-Whitney U test was conducted to determine if there was a difference in body weight (kg) between the participants that lift weights versus the participants that do not lift weights. The body weight for participants that lift weights (Mdn = 116.00) were significantly different from the body weight of participants that do not lift weights (Mdn = 40.80) U = 603, p < .001. The effect size was large, Cliff’s Delta = .93.
