similar to: a statistic question about chisq.test()

The Chisquare test is based upon a normal approx of the (essentially) binomial distribution for the data in question. Small EXPECTED (not observed) values (<5) suggest a asymetric distribution and potential errors in inferential conclusions. The alternative is the exact test, which calculates the exact probabilities of the observed distribution, or a more extreme one, given the constraining

Dear list! I would like to calculate "chisq.test" on simple data set with 70 observations, but the output is ''Warning message:'' Warning message: In chisq.test(tabele) : Chi-squared approximation may be incorrect Here is an example:         tabele <- matrix(c(11, 3, 3, 18, 3, 6, 5, 21), ncol = 4, byrow = TRUE)         dimnames(tabela) <- list(        

Hello, I am trying to fit gamma, negative exponential and inverse power functions to a dataset, and then test whether the fit of each curve is good. To do this I have been advised to calculate predicted values for bins of data (I have grouped a continuous range of distances into 1km bins), and then apply a chi-squared test. Example: > data <- data.frame(distance=c(1,2,3,4,5,6,7),

Hi, I have a text mining project and currently I am working on feature generation/selection part. My plan is selecting a set of words or word combinations which have better discriminant capability than other words in telling the group id's (2 classes in this case) for a dataset which has 2,000,000 documents. One approach is using "contrast-set association rule mining" while the

Dear List, If any of observed and/or expected data has less than 5 frequencies, then chisq.test (Pearson's Chi-squared Test for Count Data from package:stats) gives warning messages. For example, x<-c(10, 14, 10, 11, 11, 7, 8, 4, 1, 4, 4, 2, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1) y<-c(9.13112391745095, 13.1626482033341, 12.6623267638188, 11.0130706413029, 9.16415925139016,

Hello, I received the following warning when running chi-square; n Is there a way to catch the 'error' code of 'warning' after run chisq.test(x)? n What does this error mean? Thank you for your help. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear all, I would like to do a goodness-of-fit test on my data to see if they follow a mixture of 2 poisson distributions. I have small numbers for observed values. Most of them <5. The chisq.test gives warning message: Chi-squared approximation may be incorrect in: chisq.test(x , p = prob). However, the option sim=TURE would suppress the warning message. Does that mean with the option

I cannot find the solutions in the mannual about "import and export of data". For example, I run >chisq.test(x,p=probs) chi-squared..... ......... How can I write the output into a file? Is there some file operations in R? Actually, I only want to save the P-value. But I don''t know how I can extract the P-value field only from the output of chisq.test. So, I think I

Hello, I am trying to see whether there has been a significant difference in whether people experienced damages from wildlife in two different years. I therefore have two columns: year 1: yes no no no yes yes no year 2: no yes no yes I wanted to do a chisq.test, but if I enter it this way: chisq.test(year1, year2) I get the error saying the columns are two different lengths. So then I tried

Dear All, I have a problem understanding the difference between the outcome of a fisher exact test and a chi-square test (with simulated p.value). For some sample data (see below), fisher reports p=.02337. The normal chi-square test complains about "approximation may be incorrect", because there is a column with cells with very small values. I therefore tried the chi-square with

Hello all, I am trying to understand the different results I am getting from the following 3 commands: chisq.test(c(62,50), p = c(0.512,1-0.512), correct = F) # p-value = 0.3788 binom.test(x=62,n=112, p= 0.512) # p-value = 0.3961 2*(1-pbinom(62,112, .512)) # p-value = 0.329 Well, the binom.test was supposed to be "exact" and give the same results as the pbinom, while the chisq.test
