Phi Coefficient Example
• A researcher wishes to determine if a significant relationship exists between the gender of the worker and if they experience pain while performing an electronics assembly task.
• One question asks “Do you experience pain while performing the assembly task? Yes No”
• The second question asks “What is your gender? ___ Male ___ Female”

Step 1: Null and Alternative Hypotheses
• Ho: There is no relationship between the gender of the worker and if they feel pain while performing the task.• H1: There is a significant
relationship between the gender of the worker and if they feel pain while performing the task.

Step 1A: Determine dependent and independent variables and their
formats.• Gender is dichotomous,
independent• Feeling pain is dichotomous,
dependent

Step 2: Choose test statistic
• Phi Coefficient
![Page 5: Phi Coefficient Example A researcher wishes to determine if a significant relationship exists between the gender of the worker and if they experience pain](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649e585503460f94b51b0c/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Step 3: Choose Alpha Level
• Use Alpha Level = .05 • Interpreted as “There is a 5% chance
that a significant relationship really does not exist although the results indicate one does (5% chance of committing a Type I error or stated as 5% chance of rejecting the Null hypothesis when in reality it is false).

Step 4: Determine the Critical Score
• For the Phi Coefficient, the critical score is determined using a Chi Square Table.
• The first column is the Degrees of Freedom and the other columns are the Alpha levels.
• The degrees of freedom for the Phi Coefficient is equal to 1.00
• (Rows-1)(Columns-1)= (2-1)*(2-1)=1.00• At .05 and DF = 1.00, the critical score is
3.84

Step 5: Run the Test
• The Phi Coefficient should be set up as follows: –Box A contains the number of Males that said Yes
to the pain item–Box B contains the number of Females that said
Yes to the pain item–Box C contains the number of Males that said No
to the pain item–Box D contains the number of Females that said
No to the pain item

Step 6: Compare your score to the critical score
• To interpret the .17, you need to convert it to a Chi Square value.
• To do this, multiply N X (Phi Coeff)2
• If the obtained score is greater than the critical score, reject the Null and accept the alternative.
• In this example, 29 X .172 = .84• Since .84 is less than 3.84, do not reject the
Null Hypothesis.

Step 7: Conclusions
• There is no significant relationship between the genders of the workers and if they feel pain while they perform the task. • Both males and females have
pain (or no pain) at equal frequencies.
