The general condition that causes one to reject the null hypothesis in a Chi-square analysis is usually when the probability value (p-value) is less than 0.05. This means that there is less than a 5% chance that the observed data could have occurred by chance alone, and we can reject the null hypothesis in favor of the alternative hypothesis.
