To find the critical value of χ² with an alpha of .10, we need to use a chi-square distribution table with 3 degrees of freedom (4 pediatricians - 1). Looking at the table, the value at the intersection of the 3 degrees of freedom row and the .10 column is 6.25. Therefore, the critical value of χ² is 6.25.
