If you would like to run a Chi-sq analysis of the following two variables:  Body Mass Index (low, healthy, overweight, obese) and Systolic Blood Pressure Category (normal, borderline high, high), how many degrees of freedom would there be?

The Mantel Haenszel Chi-Sq Test is used to adjust for potential confounding. It tests the null hypothesis of independence between two categorical variables using data from a population subdivided into L classes: it is, therefore, a test for use with a 2×2×L contingency table.  If a Mantel Haenzel Chi-sq test was conducted on Survival at 5 years (yes or no) by Age at Diagnosis (=age 50) by Gender (Male and Female) and a statistically significant association was found.  What would you conclude?

In the following 2 by 2 contingency table of Survival at 5 years (yes or no) by Age at Diagnosis (=age 50), the data cell counts are presented as follows: under survival “yes” and age =50 cell count= 55, under survival “no” age =50 cell count=75.  What is the expected value for the cell under survival “yes” and age >=50 cell where the cell count= 55?
