eee =A company packages a particular product in cans of three different sizes, each one |
using a different production line. Most cans conform to specifications, but a quality |
control engineer has identified the following reasons for nonconformance: (1) |
blemish on can; (2) crack in can; (3) improper pull tab location; (4) pull tab |
missing; (5) other. A sample of nonconforming units is selected from each of the |
three lines, and each unit is categorized according to reason for nonconformity, |
resulting in the following contingency table data: |
Reason for Nonconformity |
Blemish Crack Location Missing Other Sample Size |
Production 1 34 65 17 21 13 150 |
Line 2 23 52 25 19 6 125 |
3 32 28 16 14 10 100 |
Total 89 145 58 54 29 375 |
Does the data suggest that the proportions falling in the various nonconformance |
categories are not the same for the three lines? The parameters of interest are the |
various proportions, and the relevant hypotheses are |
Ho: the production lines are homogeneous with respect to the five non- |
conformance categories; that is, pj; = p2j = p3j for j = 1, ...,5 |
Hi: the production lines are not homogeneous with respect to the categories |
The estimated expected frequencies (assuming homogeneity) must now be calcu- |
lated. Consider the first nonconformance category for the first production line. |
When the lines are homogeneous, |

The other contributions are calculated in a similar manner. Figure 13.4 shows |
MINITAB output for the chi-squared test. The observed count is the top number in |
each cell, and directly below it is the estimated expected count. The contribution of |
each cell to 7? appears below the counts, and the test statistic value is 77 = 14.159. |
All estimated expected counts are at least 5, so combining categories is unnecessary. |
The test is based on (3 —1)(5— 1) = 8 df. Appendix Table A.10 shows that the values |
that capture upper-tail areas of .08 and .075 under the 8 df curve are 14.06 and 14.26, |
respectively. Thus the P-value is between .075 and .08; MINITAB gives P-value |
= .079. The null hypothesis of homogeneity should not be rejected at the usual |
significance levels of .05 or .01, but it would be rejected for the higher « of .10. |
Expected counts are printed below observed counts |

Testing for Independence |
We focus now on the relationship between two different factors in a single |
population. The number of categories of the first factor will be denoted by / and |
the number of categories of the second factor by J. Each individual in the popula- |
tion is assumed to belong in exactly one of the / categories associated with the first |
factor and exactly one of the J categories associated with the second factor. For |
example, the population of interest might consist of all individuals who regularly |
watch the national news on television, with the first factor being preferred network |
(ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, or FOX, so J = 6) and the second factor political |
philosophy (liberal, moderate, conservative, giving J = 3). |
For a sample of n individuals taken from the population, let n,; denote the |
number among the n who fall both in category i of the first factor and category j of |
the second factor. The 7,;’s can be displayed in a two-way contingency table with |
T rows and J columns. In the case of homogeneity for / populations, the row totals |
were fixed in advance, and only the J column totals were random. Now only the |
total sample size is fixed, and both the ,.’s and n,;’s are observed values of random |
variables. To state the hypotheses of interest, let |

pi = the proportion of individuals in the population who |
belong in category i of factor 1 and category j of factor 2 |
= P(a randomly selected individual falls in both category |
i of factor 1 and category j of factor 2) |
Then |
Pi.= Spi = P(arandomly selected individual falls in category i of factor 1) |
J |
Pj= Spi = P(arandomly selected individual falls in category j of factor 2) |
Recall that two events A and B are independent if P(A 9 B) = P(A) - P(B). The |
null hypothesis here says that an individual's category with respect to factor | is |
independent of the category with respect to factor 2. In symbols, this becomes |
Pi = Pi. p; for every pair (i,j). |
The expected count in cell (i,j) is n - pjj, So When Ho is true, E(Njj) = n= pj. pj. |
To obtain a chi-squared statistic, we must therefore estimate the p;.’s (i = 1, ...,/) |
and p,’s (j = 1, ...,/). The (maximum likelihood) estimates are |
