(42S) (DM42) CHI²-Test for the statistical independence of two classified variables.
Program CHIT (uses program “CHIX” for integration of CHI²-distribution).
Input: Matrix of absolute frequencies (has to be in X-register)
Output: Z-register: Degrees of freedom for CHI² distributuion
Y-register: CHI² value
X-register: Confidence level of test
Matrix of absolute frequencies: FTR
Matrix of absolute frequencies in case of independence: FTI

Example: (Werner Voß (editor): Taschenbuch der Statistik, Leipzig 2000, p. 449f):
1000 people were asked what party they would vote for. The absolute frequencies were as follows:
Party female male
SPD 200 170
CDU/CSU 200 200
Grüne 45 35
FDP 25 35
PDS 20 30
Other 30 10

Result:
Z: 5 (degrees of freedom)
Y: 15.7743 (CHI²-value)
X: 0.9925 (The hypothesis of the independence of party an gender can be rejected with a confidence level of 99,25%)

Matrix FTI:
192.4 177.6
208 192
41.6 38.4
31.2 28.8
26 24
20.8 19.2

Note: All elements of the matrix FTI should be > 5. Otherwise the approximative use of the CHI² distribution is not valid.

Enjoy
