Discussion Post: Chi-Square Test of Independence
Describe the chi-square test of independence. Give an example of a question that could be answered by this test. If you were to assemble a contingency table, what would be included in your rows and columns? Pick a cell of this contingency table and explain what the value in the cell would represent (you do not need to give the value, just explain what it would represent). What hypothesis would be tested? What do you think the answer would be? Why?
Is the example appropriate for a chi square test? Why or why not? Are the variables and their categories clear? Provide any further comments on the contingency table and the meaning of the values in the cells.
The response must include a reference list. Using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, double-space, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
