You have a dataset with 400 observations You are interested

You have a dataset with 400 observations. You are interested in finding the impact one variable (Controllable) has on another variable (of interest) in the set of data. If we assume the variable of interest is continuous, and the controllable variable is categorical and has two categories (50% in one category 50% in the other). Please explain how you would go about deteremining the relationship that the controllable variable has on the variable of interest. What statistical test would you run and why?

Solution

For this experimental design, the chi-square goodness of fit test is more appropriate.
