Who developed the chi-square test in 1900 ?
Answer: B
The chi-square test was developed in 1900 by Karl Pearson.
Pearson introduced the chi-square statistic in a paper of 1900 as a test of goodness of fit: it compares observed frequencies with the frequencies expected under a hypothesis. It is now also used to test the independence of two attributes in a contingency table, which makes it one of the most used tests in social research.
Max Weber was a sociologist, not a statistician. 'Ronald Den' and 'F.W. Max' are not the names of anyone associated with the test; Ronald Fisher, whose first name the option echoes, later corrected its degrees of freedom but did not create it.
