Based on the information provided, the study appears to examine the relationship between two categorical variables (social activity and education level), which would require the use of a chi-square statistic. The F-statistic is typically used for ANOVA tests, the t-statistic is used for testing hypotheses about means, and the z-statistic is used for testing hypotheses about proportions.
