Two by two

About Fisher exact

Calculates the exact probability of occurrence of a two-by-two contingency table and the sum of probabilities of all more extreme cases.

Requires

The grand total of the table must not exceed 170. Only positive integer values are allowed. The test is designed for small samples.

About McNemar/Yates

Allows the significance of differences between two related samples to be determined where the frequencies of discrete categories are known. The measurements require no more than nominal scaling.

Feature

A Yates correction is carried out if the data are from a two-by-two matrix.

Parameters

Data from

Dataset
Data is retrieved from the current Dataset:

The currently highlighted selection is loaded for analysis. If more than two rows or columns are included in the selection then only cells at the four corners are used.
Changes you make to Column popups and Row numbers automatically update the values loaded.

Ad hoc
The column popups and row numbers are disabled and the four data values can be entered directly into the dialog
