| description | Currently, statistical inference is a key element to apply the experimental scientific method. However, classic textbooks give a great importance to parametric methods, biasing their use in various academic-research fields. The objective of this research work is focused on the investigation of the treatment given by university texts to the subject of non-parametric statistical models in relation to hypothesis testing. The methodology includes content analysis techniques applied to 10 classic statistics books and 12 specialized in non-parametric statistics. The results showed that the classic statistics books used in different universities careers deal with little content on non-parametric methods and with different levels of depth. It is concluded that university textbooks give low importance to the approach of non-parametric models, required in a diversity of investigative practices. |

Actualmente, la inferencia estadística se constituye en un elemento clave para aplicar el método científico experimental. Sin embargo, los libros de texto clásicos conceden un mayor peso a los métodos paramétricos, parcializando su uso en diversos ámbitos académico-investigativos. El objetivo de este trabajo de investigación se focalizó en indagar sobre el tratamiento otorgado por los textos universitarios al tema de los modelos estadísticos no paramétricos en lo referente a la prueba de hipótesis. La metodología incluyó técnicas de análisis de contenido aplicadas a 10 libros clásicos de estadística y 12 especializados en no paramétrica. Los resultados evidenciaron que, los libros de estadística clásicos usados en diferentes carreras universitarias tratan pocos contenidos sobre métodos no paramétricos y con diferente nivel de profundidad. Se concluye que, los libros de texto universitarios otorgan baja importancia al abordaje de los modelos no paramétricos, requeridos en una diversidad de prácticas investigativas.
