Chi-square Tests

Start with the key terms

Begin with the Chi-Squared Test flashcards for questions about what the test is, when it may be used and what its significance means. Then use Categorical Data: Chi-Square to practice the distinction between observed and expected frequencies. That deck also asks about goodness of fit, association and assumptions. Try answering each card before looking at its response, and return to terms you want to review.

Move from terms to questions

The SOC202 Chapter Ten flashcards bring together bivariate tables, independence, the null hypothesis and expected frequencies. Another deck on chi-square tests and non-normal population distributions includes terms for goodness of fit, independence, the chi-square statistic and the chi-square table. Use these alongside the introductory cards to connect the language of a question with the terms you have studied.

When you are ready for a quiz, the one on categorical variables asks how data with one or two variables can be summarized and how one categorical variable can be graphed. Use the questions to check which descriptions you can recall without the cards.

Use a map alongside a quiz

The mind map on categorical data analysis includes contingency tables, marginal association and conditional association. It also refers to a third variable. Look through its branches, then return to the categorical-data quiz and compare the language in its questions with the terms on the map. The Chi-Square Test mind map offers another resource to consult as you organize your study.

Place the topic in the unit

Chi-square Tests is one section of Common Statistical Tests (t-tests, Chi-Square, Non-parametric), in Statistics and probability. The flashcards and quizzes here let you practice the terms and questions listed for this section before you explore the rest of the unit. Pick a resource that matches the term you want to work on next.
