If your chi square test has a probability of 0.05 or less it is likely, but not certain, that your hypothesis is not correct.

How do you calculate chi square p values?

You could calculate it by integrating the chi-square probability distribution function but you are likely to be much better off using a table in a book or on the web.

Can you get a negative chi square statistic?

The characteristics of the chi-square distribution are: A. The value of chi-square is never negative. B. The chi-square distribution is positively skewed. C. There is a family of chi-square distributions.


What is the area underneath curve for chi-square distribution?

1. It is a probability distribution function and so the area under the curve must be 1.


How is the chi-square test used in genetic analysis?

Because Chi-squares are used to analyze and compare observed frequencies to expected frequencies, they can help trace the probability of an offspring receiving a certain phenotype and genotype from their parents.


What is a Chi Square table used for?

A Chi-square table is used in a Chi-square test in statistics. A Chi-square test is used to compare observed data with the expected hypothetical data.


What is the meaning of hypothesis in statistics?

A hypothesis is the first step in running a statistical test (t-test, chi-square test, etc.) A NULL HYPOTHESIS is the probability that what you are testing does NOT occur. An ALTERNATIVE HYPOTHESIS is the probability that what you are testing DOES occur.


Concept of Probability sampling and chi square test?

A probability sampling method is any method of sampling that utilizes some form of random selection. See: http://www.socialresearchmethods.net/kb/sampprob.php The simple random sample is an assumption when the chi-square distribution is used as the sampling distribution of the calculated variance (s^2). The second assumption is that the particular variable is normally distributed. It may not be in the sample, but it is assumed that the variable is normally distributed in the population. For a very good discussion of the chi-square test, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pearson%27s_chi-square_test

What is the difference between a chi-square and t-distribution?

Chi-square is a distribution used to analyze the standard deviation of two samples. A t-distribution on the other hand, is used to compare the means of two samples.
