Methodology Used
Chi-Square test was applied on the data collected through Personal interview and Questionnaire.
The steps in using the chi-square test may be summarized as follows:
1. Write the observed frequencies in column ‘fo’ 2. Figure the expected frequencies and write them in column ‘fe’. 3. Use the formula to find the chi-square value: 4. Find the degree of freesom dof= (column-1) (row-1) 5. Find the table value (consult the Chi Square Table.) 6. If your chi-square value is equal to or greater than the table value, reject the null hypothesis: differences in your data are not due to chance alone
About Research
Data were collected through Questionnaire & the following aspects were analyzed.
Brand preference while buying a new Mobile Phone.
Dependency of Price range on income of the person.
Dependency of the features preferred with the age group.
Which Brand and Model (mobile phone) would you prefer buying? 1) Nokia 2) Samsung 3)Sony Ericcson 4) Blackberry 5) HTC6) Micromax 7) Other brands
Null Hypothesis : Mobile users do not prefer to change their Brand while buying new mobile
Alternate Hypothesis : Mobile users prefer to change their Brand while
buying new mobile
Calculated Value : 103.329 Table Value (dof 63, 5% LOS):82.529
Since table value is less than calculated value, we reject null hypothesis & accept alternate hypothesis that 'Mobile users will not stay loyal to their Brand'
What is the preferred price range of mobile phone you are looking for? i) Rs.2,000 & less ii) Rs.2,000 to Rs.5,000 iii) Rs.5,000 to Rs.10,000 iv) Rs.10,000 to Rs.15,000 v) Rs.15,000 to Rs.20,000 vi) Rs.20,000 to Rs.50,000
Null Hypothesis : Price range of the brand to be purchased is dependent on the income of the person
Alternate Hypothesis : Price range of the brand to be purchased is independent of the income of the person
Calculated Value : 16.6608 Table Value (dof 20, 5% LOS):31.41
Since table value is more than calculated value, we reject alternate hypothesis & accept null hypothesis that ‘Price range of the brand to be purchased is dependent on the income of the person '
Null Hypothesis: Preference of a feature is dependent of the age factor
Alternate Hypothesis: Preference of a feature is dependent of the age factor
Calculated Value : 12.7079 Table Value (dof 15, 5% LOS): 24.996
Since table value is more than calculated value, we reject alternate hypothesis & accept null hypothesis that 'Preference of a feature is dependent of the age factor'
