Asym Sig-Value .731: Test Statistics

This document describes a chi-square test performed to analyze the reasons why workers leave their jobs. The null hypothesis is that the distribution of reasons is the same as listed, while the alternative hypothesis is that the distribution is different. Based on a chi-square test statistic of 2.025, which is less than the critical value of 13.277, the null hypothesis is not rejected. Therefore, there is not sufficient evidence at the 0.01 significance level to conclude that the actual distribution of reasons workers leave their jobs differs from the listed distribution.

Q5).

Ho: the distribution of the reasons workers leave their jobs is same as listed.
Ha: the distribution of the reasons workers leave their jobs is different from listed.
α = 0.01

First we calculate expected frequencies


E = n.p
E = Expected frequency
n = size of sample
p = previous frequency /percentage
1. 0.410 x 200 = 82
2. 0.25 x 200 = 50
3. 0.15 x 200 = 30
4. 0.10 x 200 = 20
5. 0.09 x 200 = 18

Asym Sig-value = .731


Chi Square Value from SPSS = 2.025
At df= 4 and α = 0.01, Chi Square value = 13.277
2.025 < 13.277
Thus Chi Square value lies with in acceptance region.
Therefore do not reject Ho.

At α= 0.01 data do not provide evidence to conclude that the distribution of the
reasons workers leave their jobs is different from listed.
