Mastery of basic facts means that a child can give a quick response (in about 3 seconds) without resorting to non-efficient means‚ such as counting. All children are

THE CHI-SQUARE GOODNESS-OF-FIT TEST The chi-square goodness-of-fit test is used to analyze probabilities of multinomial distribution trials along a single dimension. For example‚ if the variable being studied is economic class with three possible outcomes of lower income class‚ middle income class‚ and upper income class‚ the single dimension is economic class and the three possible outcomes are the three classes. On each trial‚ one and only one of the outcomes can occur. In other words‚ a family

Chi-square tests 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 χ2 distribution and its properties A chi-square (χ2) distribution is a set of density curves with each curve described by its degree of freedom (df). The distribution have the following properties: - Area under the curve = 1 - All χ2 values are positive i.e. the curve begins from 0 (except for df=1) increases to a peak and decreases towards 0 as its asymptote - The curve is skewed to the right‚ and as the degree of freedom increases‚ the
