The chi-square test is a statistical method used to determine if there is a significant association between categorical variables. It helps researchers evaluate whether the observed frequencies of categories differ from what would be expected if there were no relationship between the variables. This test is particularly useful for analyzing data from cross-sectional studies, making inferences about populations, testing hypotheses, and understanding complex models in structural equation modeling.
