Chi-square test for independence:

Chi-square test for independence is used to test whether two categories of interest are independent of each other or not.

The test hypotheses are given below:

Null hypothesis:

H0: The two categories of interest are independent.

Alternative hypothesis:

Ha: The two categories of interest are not independent.

Evidently, the test is to determine whether the values of one category can help to determine the values of another category.

Thus, the study seeks to find whether there is any association between the two categories.
