Genevive Alcantara Martin (MABC 503) Worksheet #10 (Chi - Square Test of Independence)

The document describes the results of chi-square tests of independence performed on 6 variables: gender, educational attainment, age, attitude to exercise, smoking status, and alcohol consumption. For gender and attitude to exercise, the null hypothesis of independence was rejected due to low p-values, indicating a relationship between the variables. For educational attainment, age, and alcohol consumption, the null hypothesis was not rejected as the p-values were above 0.05, meaning independence could not be ruled out. The null hypothesis was rejected for both tests of smoking status due to very low p-values.

Worksheet #10 (Chi – Square Test of Independence):


1. Gender
Using the p-value approach
1) The null (Ho) and alternative H1 hypotheses
             Ho:  The two variables are independent
             H1:  The two variables are related
2) The level of significance:  α = 0.05
3) The p-value = 0.016707
4) Decision 
a. Reject Ho if p-value < 0.05
b. Do not reject Ho if p-value > 0.05

5)  Conclusion: It seems that the Null Hypothesis is rejected, and it means that there is
sufficient evidence to conclude that the variables are related.

2. Educational Attainment
Using the p-value approach
1) The null (Ho) and alternative H1 hypotheses
             Ho:  The two variables are independent
             H1:  The two variables are related
2) The level of significance:  α = 0.05
3) The p-value = 0.959668
4) Decision 
a. Reject Ho if p-value < 0.05
b.Do not reject Ho if p-value > 0.05

5) Conclusion: It seems that the Null Hypothesis does not reject the Null Hypothesis, it
means that there is no sufficient evidence to conclude that the variables are related.

3. AGE
Using the p-value approach
1) The null (Ho) and alternative H1 hypotheses
             Ho:  The two variables are independent
             H1:  The two variables are related
2) The level of significance:  α = 0.05
3) The p-value = 0.554568
4) Decision 
a. Reject Ho if p-value < 0.05
b. Do not reject Ho if p-value > 0.05

5) Conclusion: It seems that the Null Hypothesis does not reject the Null Hypothesis, it
means that there is no sufficient evidence to conclude that the variables are related.
4. ATTITUDE TO EXERCISE
Using the p-value approach
1) The null (Ho) and alternative H1 hypotheses
             Ho:  The two variables are independent
             H1:  The two variables are related
2) The level of significance:  α = 0.05
3) The p-value = 1.28E-05
4) Decision 
a. Reject Ho if p-value < 0.05
b. Do not reject Ho if p-value > 0.05

5) Conclusion: It seems that the Null Hypothesis is rejected, and it means that there is
sufficient evidence to conclude that the variables are related.

5. SMOKING STATUS
Using the p-value approach
1) The null (Ho) and alternative H1 hypotheses
             Ho:  The two variables are independent
             H1:  The two variables are related
2) The level of significance:  α = 0.05
3) The p-value = 3.32E-07
4) Decision 
a. Reject Ho if p-value < 0.05
b. Do not reject Ho if p-value > 0.05

5) Conclusion: It seems that the Null Hypothesis is rejected, and it means that there is
sufficient evidence to conclude that the variables are related.

6. SMOKING STATUS
Using the p-value approach
1) The null (Ho) and alternative H1 hypotheses
             Ho:  The two variables are independent
             H1:  The two variables are related
2) The level of significance:  α = 0.05
3) The p-value = 0.000922
4) Decision 
a. Reject Ho if p-value < 0.05
b. Do not reject Ho if p-value > 0.05

5) Conclusion: It seems that the Null Hypothesis is rejected, and it means that there is
sufficient evidence to conclude that the variables are related.
