True, but I still think contingency tables are a pain to set up. Where's the Excel template for that?

I’m pretty sure contingency tables are for testing associations, but I have a nagging doubt about the wording. Could it be B?

I feel like we discussed something similar in class, but I can't recall if it was specifically about two classifications or more. Maybe it's A?

I remember practicing a question about chi-square tests with contingency tables, and it was all about checking for dependency. So I think the answer is A.

I think contingency tables are definitely used for testing associations, but I'm not 100% sure if they can handle more than two classifications.

I'm a little confused by this question. I know contingency tables are used for categorical data, but I can't recall the specific purpose. Is it for testing associations, or something else? I'll have to review my notes to be sure.

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. Contingency tables show the frequencies of observations that fall into different categories. If the categories are independent, the observed frequencies should match the expected frequencies. So this is used to test for associations between the categories. I'm going to go with A) True on this one.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this. I know contingency tables have something to do with categorical data, but I can't quite remember if it's for testing associations or something else. I'll have to think this through.
