Chi Square Tests and F Distribution

Chi-Square Tests and the F-
Distribution
Larson/Farber 4th ed 1
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%

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.
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.
• 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.
• 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.
Example: Finding Observed and
Expected Frequencies
A marketing executive randomly
selects 500 radio music listeners Survey results
from the broadcast region and asks (n = 500)
each whether he or she prefers Classical 8

shown at the right. Find the

of music.
Solution: Finding Observed and

Solution: Finding Observed and

Type of % of Observed Expected

music listeners frequency frequency
Classical 4% 8 500(0.04) = 20
Country 36% 210 500(0.36) = 180
Gospel 11% 72 500(0.11) = 55
Oldies 2% 10 500(0.02) = 10
Pop 18% 75 500(0.18) = 90
Rock 29% 125 500(0.29) = 145
n = 500
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.
• 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

• Used a contingency table to find expected frequencies

• Used a chi-square distribution to test whether two

Section 10.3
Comparing Two Variances
F-Distribution
• Let s12 and s22 represent the sample variances of two

different populations.
• If both populations are normal and the population
variances σ 12 and σ 22 are equal, then the sampling
distribution of
s12
F 2
s2
is called an F-distribution.
Properties of the F-Distribution
1. The F-distribution is a family of curves each of

which is determined by two types of degrees of
freedom:
 The degrees of freedom corresponding to the
variance in the numerator, denoted d.f.N
 The degrees of freedom corresponding to the
variance in the denominator, denoted d.f.D
2. F-distributions are positively skewed.
3. The total area under each curve of an F-distribution
is equal to 1.
Critical Values for the F-Distribution
1. Specify the level of significance .

2. Determine the degrees of freedom for the numerator,
d.f.N.
3. Determine the degrees of freedom for the denominator,
d.f.D.
4. Use Table 7 in Appendix B to find the critical value. If
the hypothesis test is
a. one-tailed, use the  F-table.
b. two-tailed, use the ½ F-table.
Example: Finding Critical F-Values
Find the critical F-value for a right-tailed test when

α = 0.05, d.f.N = 6 and d.f.D = 29.
Solution:
The critical value is F0 = 2.43.

Example: Finding Critical F-Values
Find the critical F-value for a two-tailed test when

α = 0.05, d.f.N = 4 and d.f.D = 8.
Solution:
• When performing a two-tailed hypothesis test using
the F-distribution, you need only to find the right-
tailed critical value.
• You must remember to use the ½α table.

Solution: Finding Critical F-Values
½α = 0.025, d.f.N = 4 and d.f.D = 8
The critical value is F0 = 5.05.
Two-Sample F-Test for Variances
To use the two-sample F-test for comparing two

population variances, the following must be true.
1. The samples must be randomly selected.
2. The samples must be independent.
3. Each population must have a normal distribution.

• Introduce two-way analysis of variance
One-Way ANOVA
One-way analysis of variance

• A hypothesis-testing technique that is used to
compare means from three or more populations.
• Analysis of variance is usually abbreviated ANOVA.
• Hypotheses:
 H0: μ1 = μ2 = μ3 =…= μk (all population means are
equal)
 Ha: At least one of the means is different from the
others.
One-Way ANOVA
In a one-way ANOVA test, the following must be true.

1. Each sample must be randomly selected from a
normal, or approximately normal, population.
2. The samples must be independent of each other.
3. Each population must have the same variance.

Variance within samples
1. The variance between samples MSB measures the
differences related to the treatment given to each
sample and is sometimes called the mean square

2. The variance within samples MSW measures the
differences related to entries within the same sample.
This variance, sometimes called the mean square
within, is usually due to sampling error.

A medical researcher wants to determine whether there
is a difference in the mean length of time it takes three
types of pain relievers to provide relief from headache
pain. Several headache sufferers are randomly selected
and given one of the three medications. Each headache
sufferer records the time (in minutes) it takes the
medication to begin working. The results are shown on

mean times are different? Assume that each population

Example: Using the TI-83/84 to Perform a
One-Way ANOVA
Three airline companies offer flights between Corydon
and Lincolnville. Several randomly selected flight times
(in minutes) between the towns for each airline are
shown on the next slide. Assume that the populations of
flight times are normally distributed, the samples are
independent, and the population variances are equal. At
α = 0.01, can you conclude that there is a difference in
the means of the flight times? Use a TI-83/84.

One-Way ANOVA

Solution: Using the TI-83/84 to Perform a
One-Way ANOVA
• H0: μ1 = μ2 = μ3
• Ha: At least one mean is different
• Store data into lists L1, L2, and L3
• Decision: P-value < α Reject H0

There is enough evidence to support the claim. You can
conclude that there is a difference in the means of the flight
times.
Two-Way ANOVA
Two-way analysis of variance

• A hypothesis-testing technique that is used to test the
effect of two independent variables, or factors, on
one dependent variable.
Two-Way ANOVA
Example:
• Suppose a medical researcher wants to test the effect
of gender and type of medication on the mean length
of time it takes pain relievers to provide relief.
Gender
Male Female
medication
I Males taking type I Females taking type I

Type of
II Males taking type II Females taking type II

III Males taking type III Females taking type III
Two-Way ANOVA Hypotheses
Main effect
• The effect of one independent variable on the
dependent variable.
Interaction effect
• The effect of both independent variables on the
dependent variable.
Hypotheses for main effects:

• H0: Gender has no effect on the mean length of time it
takes a pain reliever to provide relief.
• Ha: Gender has an effect on the mean length of time it
takes a pain reliever to provide relief.
• H0: Type of medication has no effect on the mean length of

time it takes a pain reliever to provide relief.
• Ha: Type of medication has an effect on the mean length of
time it takes a pain reliever to provide relief.
Hypotheses for interaction effects:

• H0: There is no interaction effect between gender and type
of medication on the mean length of time it takes a
pain reliever to provide relief.
• Ha: There is an interaction effect between gender and type
of medication on the mean length of time it takes a
pain reliever to provide relief.
Two-Way ANOVA
• A two-way ANOVA test calculates an F-test statistic for

each hypothesis.
• It is possible to reject none, one, two, or all of the null
hypotheses.
• Can use a technology tool such as MINITAB to perform a
two-way ANOVA test.
• Used one-way analysis of variance to test claims

involving three or more means
• Introduced two-way analysis of variance
