Why is a chi-square test for independence always right-tailed?

I will rephrase your question:: Is the chi-square positively or negatively skewed? It has to be positively skewed, as the mean > median > mode, and skewness is positive. The degrees of freedom, k, must be greater than zero, therefore: skewness = square root of 8/k, is also positive. Mean of the distribution is k, median is k- 2/3 and mode is k-2 for k > 2, therefore in all cases the mean > median > mode condition holds.

How to get expected frequency value in chi square test?
For goodness of fit test using Chisquare test, Expected frequency = Total number of observations * theoretical probability specified or Expected frequency = Total number of observations / Number of categories if theoretical frequencies are not given. For contingency tables (test for independence) Expected frequency = (Row total * Column total) / Grand total for each cell
When is the chi-test used?
There are many chi-squared tests. You may mean the chi-square goodness-of-fit test or chi-square test for independence. Here is what they are used for.A test of goodness of fit establishes if an observed frequency differs from a theoretical distribution.A test of independence looks at whether paired observations on two variables, expressed in a contingency table, are independent of each.
What are examples of nonparametric statistics?
Fisher's exact probability test, chi-square test for independence, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Spearman's Rank correlation and many, many more.
What would you use a parametric test for?
* Always when the assumptions for the specific test (as there are many parametric tests) are fulfilled. * When you want to say something about a statistical parameter.
In a chi-square test the null hyopthesis is always?
Assumed that there is no relationship between variables.

What is pre independence?
pre Independence is basically independence that is happening now to get ready for the actual independence moment. for example of pre something. pre test. a test that you take to review a day or sometime before you take the test. that's what pretest is so pre independence means a practice independence before you have the real independence moment.
Is the chi square of independence test a test a test of significance?
Yes.
Does always test on animals?

Can one test positive and re - test negative?
Yes. I am not sure what test you are talking about, but tests are not always 100% reliable.
