Question

A doctor wanted to study the effect of four different treatments on mental health. A group of 100 adults experiencing depression volunteered for the study. The doctor randomly assigned one-fourth of them to each of four groups. Group 1 followed a specific exercise plan, group 2 followed a specific diet plan, group 3 followed an exercise and diet plan, and group 4 did not follow any plan. After 4 weeks, the doctor contacted each participant and asked them if they felt any better. The results are displayed in the table.

 

The doctor would like to know if these data provide convincing evidence that the distribution of responses differs across the treatment groups in the population of all patients like these. The random condition is met. The 10% condition is not needed because random sampling did not take place. This table of expected counts shows that all expected counts are at least 5.

 

The value of the chi-square test statistic is χ‑2 = 25.33. What are the degrees of freedom and P-value of this test?

Find the chi-square table here.

df = 3. The P-value is less than 0.0005.
df = 3. The P-value is greater than 0.25.
df = 7. The P-value is less than 0.0005.
df = 7. The P-value is between 0.0005 and 0.001.
