In the chi-square test,for a significant relationship to exist:
A)the computed expected frequencies should exceed the critical chi-square table value
B)the chi-square value should exceed 1.96
C)there should be no differences between the observed and expected frequencies
D)the calculated chi-square value should exceed the critical chi-square table value
E)the chi-square value must be greater than .05

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In the chi-square test, a significant relationship exists only if the calculated chi-square value exceeds the critical chi-square table value. Therefore, option D is the correct choice. Options A, B, and E are incorrect as they do not accurately describe the criteria for a significant relationship in chi-square test. Option C is also incorrect as differences between the observed and expected frequencies are necessary for conducting the chi-square test.
