  2. Null and Alternative hypothesesActivity • Card game • Lollies

  3. Activity Outcomes • We draw a card from a pack until such time as there is a protest. • The cards have been stacked such that all red come first (or all black) • The draw is meant be be random ie a mix of red and black. • At some point students reject the idea of fairness • The proportion of reds is higher than expected by chance • (or blacks depending on which was drawn first) • Students are in fact rejecting the null hypothesis that the proportion • of red cards is 0.5. • (or that the proportion of red and black cards is equal) • They are accepting the hypothesis that the proportion is not equal 0.5

  4. Null and Alternative hypotheses • Null hypothesis is that the proportion of red cards (females) is 0.5 (or that the proportion of red and black cards is equal) • Alternative hypothesis is that the proportion of red cards (females) is not equal 0.5

  5. Null and Alternative hypothesesformal • H0: p = 0.5 and • HA p ≠ 0.5 • The p we refer to is the population proportion • We do not hypothesise about a sample proportion • We make inference about a population parameter p Tests of proportions

  6. Lecture Outline • Test hypotheses about association between categorical variables • Testing Hypotheses (5 steps) • Null and alternative hypotheses • a level of significance • Select test and state decision rule • Perform experiment • Draw conclusions • test of association AND model fit • p values

  7. Contingency tables • For this contingency table what is • P(Male) = • P(Support)= 20/70 40/70

  8. Contingency tables • If event male is independent of event support then • P(Male and Support) = P(Male)xP(Support) =20/70 x 40/70 = 0.1632

  9. Contingency tables • Given 70 observed people, if P(Male & Support)=0.1632 • How many are expected to be male and support given independence? 11.43 = 0.1632 x70 = 11.43 if events Males and Support are independent

  10. Contingency tables • Knowing the expected frequency for (male and support) we have no more degrees of freedom, the remaining values are fixed. 11.43 20-11.43=8.57 30-8.57=21.43 40-11.43=38.57 Note: We had 1 degree of freedom

  11. Contingency tables • If we observe a sample of data we may ask if the variables sex and level of support are associated? To test this we formally test the hypotheses… E=11.43 E=8.57 E=38.57 E=21.43

  12. Hypotheses: no association • Ho: E=rc/total (under model of independence) • Ha: E ≠ rc/total E=11.43 E=8.57 E=38.57 E=21.43 Where rc/total is (row total x column total)/grand total

  13. 2. Assign •  is determined such that we have a desired level of confidence in our procedures (ie in our results). • For the chi-square test for association we will use =0.05 • We will examine choosing alpha () later

  14. Degrees of freedom • Knowing the expected frequency for (male and support) we have no more degrees of freedom, the remaining values are fixed. 11.43 20-11.43=8.57 21.43 38.57 Note: We had 1 degree of freedom

  15. Degrees of freedom • The degrees of freedom for a rows x column matrix may be calculated as (r-1)x(c-1)=(2-1)x(2-1)=1 • r is the number or rows and c is the number of columns 11.43 8.57 21.43 38.57 Note: We had 1 degree of freedom

  16. Hypotheses: no association • Ho: E = rc/total (under model of independence) • Ha: E ≠ rc/total E=11.43 E=8.57 E=38.57 E=21.43

  17. 3. Select a test statistic and... determine the rejection region To test about association in contingency tables we calculate • And determine the region of rejection ie how big chi-square has to be before we conclude that the observed are sufficiently different to the expected to reject the null hypothesis • eij expected count for the ith row and jth column of the table

  18. 3... determine the rejection region For our contingency table df=1, Then reject Ho there is evidence that the variables are not independent If the calculated > 3.841

  19. 3... determine the rejection region For our contingency table df=1, a=0.05 Then reject Ho there is evidence that the variables are not independent If the calculated > 3.841

  20. 4. Calculate E=11.43 E=8.57 E=28.57 E=21.43

  21. Decision • As calculated value of 0.70 < 3.841 (tabulated value) there insufficient evidence to reject the model that sex and level of support are independent. That is there is no evidence of an association between sex and level of support. The profile of support by males is similar to the profile of support for females. 13/40 (32.5%)males support, 7/30 (23.3%) females support

  22. SPSS: data entry looks like • Data, weight cases by freq has been selected • Analyse, Descriptives, Crosstabs and options have been selected

  23. SPSS output: contingency table

  24. SPSS output: Pearson Chi-Square Value of chi-square Assumption of expected frequencies > 5 hold

  25. SPSS output: Pearson Chi-Square Probability of getting a statistic as high or greater than 0.706 is 0.401. This is high >0.05 therefore retain Ho, we can get this chi value by chance under independence Value of chi-square

  26. Example from Utts p. 528SPSS: data • Yes / No Ear infection • P Placebo gum • X xylitol gum • L xylitol lozenge • Is there an association between ear infection and gum used?

  27. Under Independence: Expected frequency

  28. Under Independence: Expected

  29. Under Independence: Expected Degrees of freedom= 2

  30. Hypotheses : E=rc/total (variables independent) : E ≠ rc/total • Ho Ha OR EQUIVALENT If p1=proportion who get an infection in population given placebo p2=proportion who get an infection given Xylitol gum P3=proportion who get an infection in a population given Xylitol lozenges Ho: Ha: p1=p2=p3 p1, p2 and p3 are not all the same

  31. 5 step hypothesis test : E =rc/total (variables independent) • Ho Ha • = • df= • Statistic and Region of rejection : E ≠ rc/total 0.05 (3-1)x(2-1)=2 If calculated chi-square >5.991 reject Ho there is evidence that the variables are not independent

  32. Conclusion: using decision rule & SPSS >5.991 therefore there is evidence that the data do not fit the model of independence • Chi-square = 6.690

  33. P values (sig) For chi-square test (one tailed) the p value is • the probability of getting this statistic or greater

  34. Conclusion using p value from SPSS The probability of getting a chi-square as high as this or higher is 0.035. This is a small probability (<0.05) if the H0 were true. There is evidence of an association between infection and gum used • Chi-square = 6.690 Assumptions re expected frequency>5 OK

  35. Significance Tests - Formal 1. Null and alternative hypotheses 2. Assign 3. Select a statistic and determine the rejection region 4. Perform the experiment and calculate the observed value of or T or Z or…other statistic 5. Draw conclusions in context of problem

  36. Previous hypothesis testing situations Model fit • Ho: Model is Binomial(2,0.5) Ha: Model is not Binomial(2,0.5) 2. Ho: Model is Poisson (0.4) Ha: Model is not Poisson (0.4) 3. Ho: Model is random stopping model Ha: Model is not random stopping model

  37. Future hypothesis testing situations • the null hypothesis may be proportion p= 0.5 and • alternative hypothesis proportion p ≠ 0.5 • the null hypothesis may be = 0 and • alternative hypothesis ≠ 0. Tests of proportions Tests of means
