Hypothesis Test for Independence Ho: Variables are Independent H1: Variables are Dependent

SPSS Chi-Square Test

Hypothesis Test for Independence Result Reject Ho and conclude H1 : Variables
are dependent Don’t Reject Ho : Not enough information
to conclude variables are dependent

Chi-Squared Test
Test for independence Can be used for nominal and ordinal
data Nonparametric test

SPSS Assignment What characteristics of individuals might
increase or decrease the likelihood they will engage in activities that build social capital like visiting neighbors (socommun2) or friends (socfrend2)?
Choose three survey responses to study Conduct a Chi-Squared hypothesis test for
independence Give your hypotheses, test results and
interpretation Characterize the relationship using a measure
of association Clearly indicate which measure you use and
give the relative size of the impact of the independent variable.
