Chapter 12 The Analysis of Categorical Data and Goodness of Fit Tests

Slide 3

There are six colors so k = 6. Suppose we wanted to determine if the proportions for the different colors in a large bag of M&M candies matches the proportions that the company claims is in their candies. We could record the color of each candy in the bag. This would be univariate, categorical data. How many categories for color would there be? k is used to denote the number of categories for a categorical variable

Slide 4

M&M Candies Continued... We could count how many candies of each color are in the bag. A one-way frequency table is used to display the observed counts for the k categories. RedBlueGreenYellowOrangeBrown 232821192225 A goodness-of-fit test will allow us to determine if these observed counts are consistent with what we expect to have.

Slide 5

Goodness-of-Fit Test Procedure Null Hypothesis: H 0 : p 1 = hypothesized proportion for Category 1 p k = hypothesized proportion for Category k H a : H 0 is not true Test Statistic:... The goodness-of-fit statistic, denoted by X 2, is a quantitative measure to the extent to which the observed counts differ from those expected when H 0 is true. The X 2 value can never be negative. Read chi-squared The goodness-of-fit test is used to analysze univariate categorical data from a single sample.

Slide 6

Goodness-of-Fit Test Procedure Continued... P -values: When H 0 is true and all expected counts are at least 5, X 2 has approximately a chi-square distribution with df = k 1. Therefore, the P -value associated with the computed test statistic value is the area to the right of X under the df = k 1 chi- square curve. Assumptions: 1)Observed cell counts are based on a random sample 2)The sample size is large enough as long as every expected cell count is at least 5

Slide 7

Different df have different curves curves are skewed right As df increases, the 2 curve shifts toward the right and becomes more like a normal curve Facts About 2 distributions df=3 df=5 df=10

A common urban legend is that more babies than expected are born during certain phases of the lunar cycle, especially near the full moon. The table below shows the number of days in the eight lunar phases with the number of births in each phase for 24 lunar cycles.

Slide 9

Lunar Phases Continued... There is a total of 699 days in the 24 lunar cycles. If there is no relationship between the number of births and lunar phase, then the expected proportions equal the number of days in each phase out of the total number of days.

H 0 : p 1 =.0343, p 2 =.2175, p 3 =.0343, p 4 =.2132, p 5 =.0343, p 6 =.2146, p 7 =.0343, p 8 =.2175 H a : H 0 is not true Test Statistic: P -value >.10df = 7 =.05 Since the P -value > , we fail to reject H 0. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that lunar phases and number of births are related. What type of error could we have potentially made with this decision? Type II The X 2 test statistic is smaller than the smallest entry in the df = 7 column of Appendix Table 8.

A study was conducted to determine if collegiate soccer players had in increased risk of concussions over other athletes or students. The two-way frequency table below displays the number of previous concussions for students in independently selected random samples of 91 soccer players, 96 non-soccer athletes, and 53 non-athletes. Number of Concussions 012 3 or more Total Soccer Players4525111091 Non-Soccer Players68158596 Non-Athletes4553053 Total158452215240 These values in green are the observed counts. Also called a contingency table. These values in blue are the marginal totals. This value in red is the grand total. This is univariate categorical data - number of concussions - from 3 independent samples. If there were no difference between these 3 populations in regards to the number of concussions, how many soccer players would you expect to have no concussions? We would expect (158/240)(91).

Slide 23

X 2 Test for Homogeneity Null Hypothesis: H 0 : the true category proportions are the same for all the populations or treatments Alternative Hypothesis: H a : the true category proportions are not all the same for all the populations or treatments Test Statistic: The 2 Test for Homogeneity is used to analyze univariate categorical data from 2 or more independent samples.

Slide 24

X 2 Test for Homogeneity Continued... Expected Counts: (assuming H 0 is true) P -value: When H 0 is true and all expected counts are at least 5, X 2 has approximately a chi-square distribution with df = (number of rows 1)(number of columns 1). The P -value associated with the computed test statistic value is the area to the right of X under the appropriate chi-square curve.

Slide 25

X 2 Test for Homogeneity Continued... Assumptions: 1)Data are from independently chosen random samples or from subjects who were assigned at random to treatment groups. 2)The sample size is large: all expected cell counts are at least 5. If some expected counts are less than 5, rows or columns of the table may be combined to achieve a table with satisfactory expected counts.

H 0 : Proportions in each response category (number of concussions) are the same for all three groups H a : Category proportions are not all the same for all three groups Df = (2)(3) = 6 To find df count the number of rows and columns not including the totals! df = (number of rows 1)(number of columns 1) Another way to find df you can also cover one row and one column, then count the number of cells left (not including totals)

Expected counts are shown in the parentheses next to the observed counts. df = 4 Test Statistic: Notice that NOT all the expected counts are at least 5. So combine the column for 2 concussions and the column for 3 or more concussions. This combined table has a df = (2)(2) = 4. P -value
