Biased Correlation Coefficients and Chi-Square Statistics with Regional Data

On the multi _ chi-square tests and their data complexity

Chi-square tests are generally used for distinguishing purposes; however when they are combined to simultaneously test several independent variables, extra notation is required. In this study, the chi-square statistics in some previous works is revealed to be computed half of its real value. Therefore, the notion of Multi _ Chi-square tests is formulated to avoid possible future confusions. In ...

Chi-Square Statistics with Multiple Imputation

Maximally selected chi-square statistics and umbrella orderings

Binary outcomes that depend on an ordinal predictor in a nonmonotonic way are common in medical data analysis. Such patterns can be addressed in terms of cutpoints: for example, one looks for two cutpoints that define an interval in the range of the ordinal predictor for which the probability of a positive outcome is particularly high (or low). A chi-square test may then be performed to compare...

No . 586 MONOTONICITY OF CHI - SQUARE TEST STATISTICS

This paper establishes monotonicity of the chi-square test statistic. As the more efficient parameter estimator is plugged into the test statistic, the degrees of freedom of the resulting chi-square test statistic monotonically increase.

On the Multivariate Asymptotic Distribution of Sequential Chi-square Statistics

The multivariate asymptotic distribution of sequential Chi-square test statistics is investigated. It is shown that: (a) when sequential Chi-square statistics are calculated for nested models on the same data, the statistics have an asymptotic intercorrelation which may be expressed in closed form, and which is, in many cases, quite high; and (b) sequential Chi-square difference tests are asymp...
