Question

A researcher compared individuals from two age groups in terms of whether or not they owned their own car. In one of the four cells, the observed frequency was 8 and the expected frequency was 6.5. If a chi-square value was calculated for this study, how much would this particular cell contribute to the total chi-square value? O 1.231 O 0.281 O 0.346 O 2.250

Step 1

The formula for the chi-square contribution of a single cell is: $$ \chi^2_{cell} = \frac{(O - E)^2}{E} $$ where: $O$ = Observed frequency $E$ = Expected frequency Show more…
