For those wondering how to get the expected frequencies: For each cell ((Sum of row)*(Sum of columns))/Total number of observations

[@datatab]

Many many thanks!!!

[@reyanshnambiar1524]

hi, thanks for the formula, May i kno the total number of observations is for the entire table or count of rows and column used in this section alone.

[@akackon]

@reyanshnambiar1524 not so sure if I understand the question well but total number of observations should be sum of column totals or sum of row totals

[@nikhilkenvetil1594]

Example: Consider the "Observed Frequency" table at 7:00. For "Female without graduation", you calculate the Expected frequency like this: ((6+7) * 43)/(43+49). Similarly, for "Male without graduation", Expected frequency would be ((6+7) * 49)/(43+49) and so on or and so forth. Just adding to what @akackon said.

[@frankl1]

The null hypothesis is that there is no relationship between those two variables, so there should be as many females as males for each educational level. So why do we have those differences in the expected frequencies?

Excellant tutorial without irrelevant peripheral presenter's ego. Could categorical variables be equated to discrete variables?

[@datatab]

Hi many thanks for your nice feedback! No actually, a discrete variable is e.g. how many people watched this video! In that case it is not possible but purely theoretically with discrete variables an infinitely large number can come out. Categorical variables include a finite number of categories or unique groups and there does not have to be a ranking. Regards Hannah

What if critical value for .01 & .05 level of significance is given and our chi square value falls in between them, like if chi square value is lesser at .01 level of significance and more at .05 level of significance, so do we accept null hypothesis or reject??

[@datatab]

You define you significance level before the test and only one value, so either 0.01 or 0.05. Then the question is, is it smaller or greater.

[@myobnp9684]

Constructive feedback. This is missing an explanation of the null hypothesis at the beginning. Then p values and chi-squared values are not clearly distinguished at the end.

[@Griffindor21]

Great explanation👍👍, but....what was the null hypothesis in the first place?

[@DramaNetSeries-b4d]

Madam, what is the difference between Chi-square, and Chi-square Goodness of Fit test ? Thanks

[@datatab]

There are several scenarios when using a Chi2 test, the two most common being that when two variables are tested to see if they are independent, the observed frequency is compared to the frequency distribution that would occur if both variables were completely independent. The second way is to compare the observed frequency with a given frequency, that would be goodness of fit.

Hi, nice video. Please clarify what is your null hypothesis (Ho) and your alternative hypothesis - it is significant to mention it before you run the test as it defines the area for rejection or FTR (fail to reject). Please clarify.

@@EranM ​ @Beverly Cepeda I am sorry! No it is not a bot but there are so many comments that it is hard for me to read them carefully, sorry for that! We have just created a new Video for chi2 Test, I hope we explain the hypotheses better in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5vXiZ5jrqp-bNk. For the example in the "old" video: Null hypothesis: there is no relationship between gender and highest educational attainment. Alternative hypothesis: There is a correlation between gender and the highest educational attainment. Regards Hannah & Mathias

[@DramaNetSeries-b4d]

Madam, we apply chi square to check relationship of two variables, we apply linear correlation also to check relationship, what is the difference between these tests , 🙏🙏

In a correlation, your two variables must have a rank order. With the Chi2 test, you only need two nominal variables. Regards Hannah

Dear researchers, I have MSR (meta cognitive self regulation) learning strategy as independent variable while Students' Score (Students'GPA) is my dependent variable. MSR is on five point Likert scale while for Students'GPA each student put his own GPA on the questionnaire in form of digits like 2 , 2.1, 2.7, 2.3, 3, 3.6, 4 etc. The students score is in random form. Each student put his own score whatever he got in the previous semester. Now my question is which kind of correlation should I use? Can I go for the Pearson correlation? How to handle with the Students'GPA variable? The sample size is 300 students which means that I have 300 Students'GPAs. It's a confusing whether I should consider the Students'GPA as ordinal, interval or ratio variable? Which kind of correlation should I go for? Please, guide.

[@pghjmuhammadfirdauspghjrus8870]

Use Correlation, you already have two sets of data MSR (Ordinal) and GPA (Ratio). But, check the correlation assumptions first, either to use mean or median type analysis. Correct me if im wrong, thanks.
