Test of Independence or Association
A university conducted a study concerning faculty teaching
evaluation classification by students. A sample of 467
faculty is randomly selected, and each person is classified
according to rank (Instructor, Assistant Professor, etc. ) and
teaching evaluation (Above, Average, Below).

Is the level
of teaching
evaluation
related to
rank?
Are Professors more likely to be judged above average than other ranks?
Ho: Teaching Evaluation and Rank are independent variables.
Two variables that have been categorized in a two-way table are independent
if the probability that a measurement is classified into a given cell of the table is
equal to the probability of being classified into that row times the probability of
being classified into that column. This must be true for all cells of the table.

There is evidence of an association between rank and
evaluation. Note that we observed less Assistant Professors
getting below average evaluations (13) than we would expect
under independence (26.2). Chi Square value is 6.67.

Test of Homogeneity
Suppose we wish to determine if there is an association between a
rare disease and another more common categorical variable (e.g.
smoking). We can’t just take a random sample of subjects and hope
to get enough cases (subjects with the disease).
One solution is to choose a fixed number of cases, and a fixed
number of controls, and classify each according to whether they are
smokers or not. The same chi square test of independence applies
here, but since we are sampling within subpopulations (have fixed
margin totals), this is now called a chi square test of homogeneity
(of distributions).
16
Homogeneity Null Hypothesis
In general, if the column categories represent c distinct subpopulations,
random samples of size n1, n2, …, nc are selected from each and classified
into the r values of a categorical variable represented by the rows of the
contingency table. The hypothesis of interest here is if there a difference
in the distribution of subpopulation units among the r levels of the
categorical variable, i.e. are the subpopulations homogenous or not.

Example: Myocardial Infarction (MI)
Data was collected to determine if there is an association between
myocardial infarction and smoking in women. 262 women suffering
from MI were classified according to whether they had ever smoked
or not. Two controls (patients with other acute disorders) were
matched to every case.

Ho: p11=p12 and p21=p22

Odds and Odds Ratios
Sometimes probabilities are expressed as odds, e.g.
• Gambling circles. (Why?)
• Biomedical studies. (Easy interpretation in logistic regression, etc.)
Odds of Event A = P(A)  (1-P(A))
P(A) = Odds of A / (1 + Odds of A)
Ex: A horse has odds of 3 to 2 of winning. This means that in every
3+2=5 races the horse wins 3 and loses 2. So P(Wins) = 3/5.
To use the above formula express the odds as d to 1, so 1.5 to 1 in
this case. Thus
P(Wins) = 1.5 / (1+1.5) = 1.5 / 2.5 = 3/5.
21
Example: MI and Odds Ratios
For women sufferers of MI, the proportion who ever smoked is
172/262 = 0.656. In other words, the odds that a woman MI
sufferer is a smoker are 0.656/(1-0.656) = 1.9.
pˆ11  0.656
For women non-sufferers of MI, the proportion who ever smoked is
173/519 = 0.333. In other words, the odds that a woman non-MI
sufferer is a smoker are 0.333/(1-0.333) = 0.5.
We can now calculate the odds ratio of being a smoker among MI
sufferers:
OR = 1.9/0.5 = 3.82
pˆ12  0.333
Among MI suffers, the odds of being a smoker are about 4 times
the odds of not being a smoker. Put another way: a randomly
selected MI sufferer is about twice as likely (.656/.333) of being a
smoker than of not being one.
