A Scaled Difference Chi-square Test Statistic for Moment Structure Analysis
A family of scaling corrections aimed to improve the chi-square approximation of goodness-oft test statistics in small samples, large models, and nonnormal data was proposed in Satorra and Bentler (1994). For structural equations models, Satorra-Bentler's (SB) scaling corrections are available in standard computer software. Often, however, the interest is not on the overall t of a model, but on...

متن کاملThe Chi Square Test
The Chi square test is a statistical test which measures the association between two categorical variables. A working knowledge of tests of this nature are important for the chiropractor and osteopath in order to be able to critically appraise the literature.
متن کاملPearson-Fisher Chi-Square Statistic Revisited
The Chi-Square test (χ 2 test) is a family of tests based on a series of assumptions and is frequently used in the statistical analysis of experimental data. The aim of our paper was to present solutions to common problems when applying the Chi-square tests for testing goodness-of-fit, homogeneity and independence. The main characteristics of these three tests are presented along with various p...
متن کاملStandardizing the Empirical Distribution Function Yields the Chi-Square Statistic
Standardizing the empirical distribution function yields a statistic with norm square that matches the chi-square test statistic. To show this one may use the covariance matrix of the empirical distribution which, at any finite set of points, is shown to have an inverse which is tridiagonal. Moreover, a representation of the inverse is given which is a product of bidiagonal matrices correspondi...
