Goodness of Fit Test: A Multinomial Population
Multinomial population: each element of a population is assigned to one and only one of several classes or categories
Binomial Distribution: to one and only one of 2 classes
H0: Pa = 0.3 Pb = 0.5 Pc=0.2
Ha: The population proportions are not Pa = 0.3 Pb = 0.5 Pc=0.2
用这个算出 goodness of fit 之后,然后查表找到相应的p-value
- State the null and alternative hypotheses.
H0: The population follows a multinomial distribution with specified probabilities for each of the k categories
Ha: The population does not follow a multinomial distribution with the specified probabilities for each of the k categories - Select a random sample and record the observed frequencies fi for each category.</
