The data for the subject鈥檚 cooperation (response or refusal) and of the age category is provided.

Assume the subjects are randomly selected for the study

Use theformula for expected frequency as stated below,

\(E = \frac{{\left( {row\;total} \right)\left( {column\;total} \right)}}{{\left( {grand\;total} \right)}}\)

The observed frequency table along with row and column total is represented as,

Theexpected frequency tableis represented as,

Here, all expected frequencies are greater than 5, which implies the requirements of the test are satisfied.

The hypotheses are formulated as follows:

\({H_0}:\)The cooperation of the subject (response or refusal) is independent of age.

\({H_1}:\)The cooperation of the subject (response or refusal) is dependent of age.

The value of the test statisticis computed as,

\[\begin{aligned}{c}{\chi ^2} = \sum {\frac{{{{\left( {O - E} \right)}^2}}}{E}} \\ = \frac{{{{\left( {73 - 73.125} \right)}^2}}}{{73.125}} + \frac{{{{\left( {255 - 239.398} \right)}^2}}}{{239.398}} + ... + \frac{{{{\left( {49 - 21.361} \right)}^2}}}{{21.361}}\\ = 20.271\end{aligned}\]

Therefore, the value of the test statistic is 20.271.

The degrees of freedomare computed as,

\(\begin{aligned}{c}\left( {r - 1} \right)\left( {c - 1} \right) = \left( {2 - 1} \right)\left( {6 - 1} \right)\\ = 5\end{aligned}\)

Therefore, the degrees of freedom are 5.

From the chi-square table, the critical value for row corresponding to 5 degrees of freedom and at 0.01 level of significance 15.086.

The p-value is obtained as 0.0011.

Since the critical value (15.086) is less than the value of the test statistic (20.271). In this case, the null hypothesis is rejected.

Therefore, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

There is insufficient evidence to support claimthat the cooperation of the subject (response or refusal) is independent of age.

Thus, the cooperation of a subject is dependent on this age.

The proportions of subjects who were uncooperative in each category are stated below.

From the results, the most proportion of uncooperative subjects were in the age category 60 and over.
