Chi-Square Test of Independence

🔗

A chi-square test of independence indicated a significant association between treatment type and infection outcome, $\chi^2(2, N = 150) = 7.78, p = .02\text{.}$ The strength of this association was weak-to-moderate, Cramer’s $V = .23\text{.}$ As illustrated in the heatmap of chi-square contributions, the primary driver of this significance was the Cranberry group, which exhibited fewer infections than would be expected by chance.
