If We Want to Test for Differences Between Two Populations $p _ { 1 } - p _ { 2 }$

question 63

True/False

If we want to test for differences between two populations of nominal data with exactly two categories, we can employ either the z-test of $p _ { 1 } - p _ { 2 }$ , or the chi-squared test of a contingency table. (Squaring the value of the z-statistic yields the value of the $x ^ { 2 }$ -statistic.)
