Abstract
Tables are very useful for summarizing data. We can use tables for all kinds of data, ranging from nominal to ratio. In Chapter 7, you will learn how to use tables to create frequency distributions and cross-tabulations as well as how to conduct chi-square tests to determine whether the frequencies are distributed according to some null hypothesis.
