A theory predicts that the relative frequencies of various personality traits in the general population are .50 for Type A personality, .25 for Type B and .25 for Type C. To investigate this theory, a psychologist takes a random sample of 60 introductory psychology students and classifies each as Type A, Type B, or Type C. In his sample, he finds 40 Type A, 5 Type B, and 15 Type C. Is the personality trait distribution in his sample the same as the theory?
