Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A chi-square test for goodness-of-fit is used to test whether the observed frequency distribution of a nominal variable differs from a theoretical or expected frequency distribution. This test is appropriate when the study has one nominal dependent variable, which is the variable whose distribution you want to test. The other options (B, C, and D) are not appropriate for a chi-square test for goodness-of-fit.
