Two relatively new tests for ordinal measurements were described. These were rank-order tests: the Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test for the case of two independent samples and the Kruskal-Wallis Test for the case of more than two independent samples. The tests were illustrated with data consisting of P-M-A scores of two groups of individuals and periodontal scores of three groups of rats, respectively. An analysis-of-variance approach was described that facilitates the calculation of appropriate significance tests.
