Bivariate analysis in spss: Chi-square test for association

Bivariate analysis is the analysis of two variables and finds their association. For bivariate analysis we mainly use crosstabs and we use the Chi-Square test to show the association. From the Chi-Square table, we interpret the p-values as followings- A small p-value (typically ≤ 0.05) indicates strong evidence against the null hypothesis, so we reject the … Read more
