Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Wilcoxon Matched-Pairs Signed Rank test uses specific critical values based on sample size and desired alpha level, not the z-table values. For n = 8 and alpha = .05 in a two-tailed test, the critical value is indeed 4, according to the Wilcoxon test critical value table.
