The chi square test is the appropriate method of data analysis when both of the variables under study are qualitative and between-subjects in nature. This test is used to determine whether there is a significant association between the two variables. The Pearson correlation is used when both variables are quantitative and a linear relationship is expected. Multiple regression is used when there are multiple predictor variables and a quantitative outcome variable. None of these methods are appropriate for the given scenario.
