Description 1 online resource : illustrations (black and white, and colour) Summary This work introduces readers to the Pearson's chi-squared test for independence (x2). This technique allows researchers to test whether or not two categorical variables are associated with each other. This example uses a subset of data from the 2012 American National Election Study (ANES). It presents a test of the relationship between gender and support for same-sex marriage. Results from an analysis like this could have implications for how citizens might respond to policy changes in this sensitive area Audience Specialized Notes Description based on online resource; title from home page (viewed on May 18, 2015) Subject Chi-square test.
