The Chi Square Test
The Chi square test is a statistical test which measures the association between two categorical variables. A working knowledge of tests of this nature are important for the chiropractor and osteopath in order to be able to critically appraise the literature.
متن کاملYour Chi-Square Test is Statistically Significant: Now What?
Applied researchers have employed chi-square tests for more than one hundred years. This paper addresses the question of how one should follow a statistically significant chi-square test result in order to determine the source of that result. Four approaches were evaluated: calculating residuals, comparing cells, ransacking, and partitioning. Data from two recent journal articles were used to i...
متن کاملChi-Square Test for Goodness of Fit
Scientists often use the Chi-square (χ) test to determine the “goodness of fit” between theoretical and experimental data. In this test, we compare observed values with theoretical or expected values. Observed values are those that the researcher obtains empirically through direct observation. The theoretical or expected values are developed on the basis of an established theory or a working hy...
متن کاملThe Chi-square test of independence
The Chi-square statistic is a non-parametric (distribution free) tool designed to analyze group differences when the dependent variable is measured at a nominal level. Like all non-parametric statistics, the Chi-square is robust with respect to the distribution of the data. Specifically, it does not require equality of variances among the study groups or homoscedasticity in the data. It permits...
متن کاملMining Statistically Significant Patterns using the Chi-Square Statistic
Statistical significance is used to ascertain whether the outcome of a given experiment can be ascribed to some extraneous factors or is solely due to chance. An observed pattern of events is deemed to be statistically significant if it is unlikely to have occurred due to randomness or chance alone. In the thesis, we study the problem of identifying the statistically relevant patterns in string...
