Hi, I have completed a survey (about tv) and I have some yes/no ranked data. I also have groups, for example gender and age.
I'm completely unsure how to statistically analyse this. >From looking at my results, I can see in over 90% of males watched football, but only 65% of females did. Is there a statistical test to compare these two groups and say they are statistically different, I have some other yes/no data that is closer together so a test would prove useful. I thought of a chi squared test (a 2x2 contigency one I think it was called) I tried it, but to be honest I was lost. Couldnt find any useful examples on the internet and I think I will burn my stats book, becuase frankly it was useless at explaining chi squared tests. Is the chi squared test the test to use to see if there is any difference between yes/no ranked data and 2 or more groups? If so I would appreciate if someone could explain the jist or could point me towards a good example or something would be great. Thanks for reading, and any help would be much much appreciated!
