Explain the importance of the need to observe the expected frequencies in the cells when you compute a chi square test.
What will be an ideal response?
Ans: The number of cells with expected frequencies less than 5 determines the plausibility of using Chi square as a test. The assumption for the use of Chi square stipulates that if you have more than 20% of the cells with expected frequencies less than 5, then chi square is not the appropriate test for your data. This normally happens with data from small samples.
