Cochran Q Test/Evidence
Method evidence record

Cochran Q Test

Cochran's Q test is a nonparametric hypothesis test introduced by William G. Cochran in 1950 for comparing proportions across three or more related binary measurements. It extends McNemar's test to the multiple-condition case and is the method of choice when every participant is observed under each condition and the outcome is recorded as a simple success/failure (1/0).
