chi square Flashcards
non parametric stat tests
level of data and experimental design
nominal data and independent measure design
step 1 of chi square
add the row and column separately together to get the total of each. this is the observed value
step 2 of chi square
with the marked column and row being a, b, c, d, etc we need to calculate the expected value. to do this., we need to take the total value and multiply it by each value in a, b, c and d etc
step 3 of chi square
now we should have the observed values and expected values. now we need to subtract the matched observed value from the expected value (o-e)
step 4 of chi square
square each number you get from step 3 (o-e squared)
step 5 of chi square
divide each of the numbers found in step 4, by the numbers matched you found in step 2. this should be the expected value. so o-e squared divide by e
degrees of freedom
number of rows-1 x number of columns-1
critical value table
look from the degree of freedom calculated and look at 0.05 on the critical value table. for example for 1 degree of freedom, it should be 3.84
the calculated value should be _______ the critical value
equal to or higher than
