# statsmodels.stats.gof.chisquare_effectsize¶

statsmodels.stats.gof.chisquare_effectsize(probs0, probs1, correction=None, cohen=True, axis=0)[source]

effect size for a chisquare goodness-of-fit test

Parameters
probs0array_like

probabilities or cell frequencies under the Null hypothesis

probs1array_like

probabilities or cell frequencies under the Alternative hypothesis probs0 and probs1 need to have the same length in the axis dimension. and broadcast in the other dimensions Both probs0 and probs1 are normalized to add to one (in the axis dimension).

correctionNone or tuple

If None, then the effect size is the chisquare statistic divide by the number of observations. If the correction is a tuple (nobs, df), then the effectsize is corrected to have less bias and a smaller variance. However, the correction can make the effectsize negative. In that case, the effectsize is set to zero. Pederson and Johnson (1990) as referenced in McLaren et all. (1994)

cohenbool

If True, then the square root is returned as in the definition of the effect size by Cohen (1977), If False, then the original effect size is returned.

axisint

If the probability arrays broadcast to more than 1 dimension, then this is the axis over which the sums are taken.

Returns
effectsizefloat

effect size of chisquare test
