MCQ (Single Correct) +4 −1
The formula: $[\text{Sum of } (Observed - Expected)^2 / Expected]$ is also known as
सूत्र: $[\sum \frac{(Observed - Expected)^2}{Expected}]$ को किस रूप में भी जाना जाता है?

Chi-Square Test:

  • Developed by Karl Pearson in 1900, the chi-square statistic tests the 'goodness of fit' between observed frequencies ($O$) and expected frequencies ($E$) based on a specific genetic hypothesis (e.g., Mendelian segregation ratios 3:1, 9:3:3:1).
  • The formula is expressed mathematically as:
$$\chi^2 = \sum \frac{(O - E)^2}{E}$$

where $O$ = Observed value, and $E$ = Expected value.

  • F-test compares two population variances (ratio of two variances: $S_1^2 / S_2^2$).
  • t-test compares the means of two groups.

Correct Answer: Option 2 (Chi-square statistic).
