2 Test for Independence
•Used with categorical, bivariate data from ONE sample
•Used to see if the two categorical variables are associated (dependent) or not associated (independent)

H0: two variables are independentHa: two variables are dependent

A beef distributor wishes to determine whether there is a relationship between geographic region and cut of meat preferred. If there is no relationship, we will say that beef preference is independent of geographic region. Suppose that, in a random sample of 500 customers, 300 are from the North and 200 from the South. Also, 150 prefer cut A, 275 prefer cut B, and 75 prefer cut C.

Now suppose that in the actual sample of 500 consumers the observed numbers were as follows:
Is there sufficient evidence to suggest that geographic regions and beef preference are not independent? (Is there a difference between the expected and observed counts?)

Assumptions:
•Have a random sample of people
•All expected counts are greater than 5.
H0: geographic region and beef preference are
independent Ha: geographic region and beef
preference are dependent
P-value = .0226 df = 2 = .05
Since p-value < , I reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to suggest that geographic region and beef preference are dependent.

22 test for homogeneity test for homogeneity
•Used with a single single categoricalcategorical variable from two (or more) independent two (or more) independent samplessamples
•Used to see if the two populations are the same (homogeneous)
Assumptions & formula remain the same!
Expected counts & df are found the same way as test for independence.
OnlyOnly change is the hypotheses!
Hypotheses – written in Hypotheses – written in wordswords
H0: the proportions for the two (or more) distributions are the sameHa: At least one of the proportions for the distributions is different

Ex 2) The following data is on drinking behavior for independently chosen random samples of male and female students. Does there appear to be a gender difference with respect to drinking behavior? (Note: low = 1-7 drinks/wk, moderate = 8-24 drinks/wk, high = 25 or more drinks/wk)
Men Women Total
None 140 186 326
Low 478 661 1139
Moderate 300 173 473
High 63 16 79

Assumptions:
•Have 2 random sample of students
•All expected counts are greater
than 5.
H0: the proportions of drinking behaviors is the same
for female & male students Ha: at least one of the proportions of
drinking behavior is different for female & male students
P-value = 8.67E-21 ≈ 0 df = 3 = .05
Since p-value < , I reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to suggest that drinking behavior is not the same for female & male students.
