Chi Square


What statistical test is used when considering the correlation relationship between two variables?

The Pearson correlation coefficient is commonly used to assess the linear relationship between two continuous variables. If the data does not meet the assumptions of normality, the Spearman rank correlation can be utilized as a non-parametric alternative. Both tests provide insights into the strength and direction of the correlation between the variables.


How do you determine if variances are similar?

If the two distributions can be assumed to follow Gaussian (Normal) distributions then Fisher's F-test is the most powerful test. If the data are at least ordinal, then you can use the Kolmogorov-Smirnov two-sample test.


When an inference procedure is done involving a comparison of two quantitative variables how is the choice between using a two-sample t test or a one-sample matched-pairs test determined?

A matched test is appropriate only if the two variables are measures taken for the same subject.


Which conditions must be met to conduct a test for the difference in two sample means?

The two samples must be independent and the data must be at least ordinal. Under those conditions the Mann-Whitney U test can be used.

Is there a statistical test to assess the difference between two ratios. I have numbers which are ratios and want to test whether there is a statistical difference between them?

You can use the z test for two proportions. The link below will do this test for you.


When to use Spearman Rho?

Spearman's Rho is used when you want to assess the strength and direction of a monotonic relationship between two variables that may not necessarily be normally distributed. It is particularly useful for ordinal data or when the assumptions of parametric tests, like Pearson's correlation, are violated. Additionally, it is appropriate when dealing with small sample sizes or when the data contains outliers, as it is less sensitive to these issues.
