All chi-square values χ2 are greater than or equal to zero. 2. The chi-square distribution is a family of curves, each determined by the degrees of freedom. To find the critical values, use the χ2-distribution with degrees of freedom equal to one less than the sample size. • d.f. = n – 1 Degrees of freedom 3. The area under each curve of the chi-square distribution equals one. 5 Properties of The Chi-Square Distribution 4.

A binomial experiment had only two possible outcomes. The probability for each outcome is fixed and each outcome is classified into categories. 11 Multinomial Experiments Example: A radio station claims that the distribution of music preferences for listeners in the broadcast region is as shown below. Distribution of music Preferences Classical 4% Oldies 2% Country 36% Pop 18% Gospel 11% Rock 29% Each outcome is classified into categories. 12 The probability for each possible outcome is fixed. Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit Test Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit Test Used to test whether a frequency distribution fits an expected distribution. The null hypothesis states that the frequency distribution fits the specified distribution. The alternative hypothesis states that the frequency distribution does not fit the specified distribution. 13 Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit Test Example: • To test the radio station’s claim, the executive can perform a chi-square goodness-of-fit test using the following hypotheses. H0: The distribution of music preferences in the broadcast region is 4% classical, 36% country, 11% gospel, 2% oldies, 18% pop, and 29% rock. (claim) Ha: The distribution of music preferences differs from the claimed or expected distribution. 14 Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit Test To calculate the test statistic for the chi-square goodness-of- fit test, the observed frequencies and the expected frequencies are used. The observed frequency O of a category is the frequency for the category observed in the sample data. 15 Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit Test The expected frequency E of a category is the calculated frequency for the category. Expected frequencies are obtained assuming the specified (or hypothesized) distribution. The expected frequency for the ith category is Ei = npi where n is the number of trials (the sample size) and pi is the assumed probability of the ith category. 16 Example: Finding Observed and Expected Frequencies A marketing executive randomly selects 500 radio music listeners from the broadcast region and asks each whether he or she prefers classical, country, gospel, oldies, pop, or rock music. The results are shown at the right. Find the observed frequencies and the expected frequencies for each type of music. 17 Survey results (n = 500) Classical 8 Country 210 Gospel 72 Oldies 10 Pop 75 Rock 125 Solution: Finding Observed and Expected Frequencies Observed frequency: The number of radio music listeners naming a particular type of music Survey results (n = 500) Classical 8 Country 210 Gospel 72 Oldies 10 Pop 75 Rock 125 18 observed frequency Solution: Finding Observed and Expected Frequencies Expected Frequency: Ei = npi Type of music Classical Country Gospel Oldies Pop Rock 19 % of listeners 4% 36% 11% 2% 18% 29% Observed frequency 8 210 72 10 75 125 n = 500 Expected frequency 500(0.04) = 20 500(0.36) = 180 500(0.11) = 55 500(0.02) = 10 500(0.18) = 90 500(0.29) = 145 Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit Test For the chi-square goodness-of-fit test to be used, the following must be true. 1. The observed frequencies must be obtained by using a random sample. 2. Each expected frequency must be greater than or equal to 5. 20 Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit Test If these conditions are satisfied, then the sampling distribution for the goodness-of-fit test is approximated by a chi-square distribution with k – 1 degrees of freedom, where k is the number of categories. The test statistic for the chi-square goodness-of-fit test is 2 ( O E ) 2 E The test is always a right-tailed test. where O represents the observed frequency of each category and E represents the expected frequency of each category. 21 Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit Test In Words 1.

Example: Performing a Goodness of Fit Test The manufacturer of M&M’s candies claims that the number of different-colored candies in bags of dark chocolate M&M’s is uniformly distributed. To test this claim, you randomly select a bag that contains 500 dark chocolate M&M’s. The results are shown in the table on the next slide. Using α = 0.10, perform a chi-square goodness-of-fit test to test the claimed or expected distribution. What can you conclude?
