(a)Hand calculate the expected frequencies,the Pearson chi-square statistic,the degree of freedom under the total independence of V,D,and P.Report the total independence test result at the 5%significance level.Do you think the test result is appropriate? [5 marks]
(b)Hand calculate the expected frequencies,the Pearson chi-square statistic,the degree of freedom under the group independence between (V,D)and P.Re- port the group independence test result at the 5%significance level.[5 marks]
(c)Hand calculate the expected frequencies,the Pearson chi-square statistic,the degree of freedom under the conditional independence between D and P given V.Report the conditional independence test result at the 5%significance level. [5 marks]
(d)Hand calculate the expected frequencies,the Pearson chi-square statistic,the degree of freedom under the marginal independence between V and P.Report the marginal independence test result at the 5%significance level.[5 marks]
(e)Comment on the test results. [5 marks]

2.The dataset Neuralgia contains five variables:Treatment,Sex,Age,Duration, and Pain.The last variable,Pain=Yes,No,is the response variable.Treatment is a categorical variable with three levels A,B and P.Sex represents the gender of the patients and has two levels F and M.The Age and Duration are two continuous variables.The SAS outputs from the SAS proc logistic are given as follows.

(a)The procedure models the probability of which event?Write down the fitted logistic model [4 marks]
(b)What is the null hypothesis for Global Null Hypothesis?Report the global null hypothesis test result at the 5%significance level.Is the sample size sufficiently large? [4 marks]
(c)Consider the following two patients with
(i)Treatment=P,Sex=M,Age=30,Duration=5; (ii)Treatment=B,Sex=F,Age=50,Duration=10.
Write down the coefficients of contrast for patient (i);patient (ii);and (i)vs (ii).Report the odds ratio of (i)vs (ii)as well as the corresponding 95% confidence interval and provide appropriate interpretations. [9 marks]
(d)What is the null hypothesis for the following TEST statement?
test SexF +TreatmentASexF =0,SexF +TreatmentBSexF =0;
Report the test result at the 5%significance level. [4 marks]
(e)Report the result of the Hosmer-Lemeshow lack-of-fit test at the 5%signif- cance level.The lack-of-fit test yields p=0.4390 for the probit link function. Which link function fits better? [4 marks] [Total:25 marks]
