The table-based approach to testing for differences in population proportions yields more accurate results than the squared standardized normal random variable approach.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The table-based approach and the squared standardized normal random variable approach (which essentially refers to using the chi-square test for independence or goodness of fit) both have their own contexts and applications. Accuracy is not inherently better in one over the other; rather, it depends on the specific conditions and assumptions of the test being applied.
