• In this short tutorial you will see a problem that can be investigated using a Chi-Square Test of Independence.

• In this short tutorial you will see a problem that can be investigated using a Chi-Square Test of Independence.

• You will then see how the results of the analysis can be reported using APA style.

Problem:

Problem:We analyzed whether heart disease (no=1 and yes =2) and gender (male = 1 and female = 2) are independent of one another.

• Here is one general template for reporting a Chi-Square Test of Independence:

A Chi-square test of independence was calculated comparing the frequency of heart disease in men and women. A significant interaction was found (2 (1) = 23.80, p < .05). Men were more likely to get heart dease (68% than women (40%)
