In Section 13.3, a chi-square test of homogeneity was carried out on the frequencies of word counts in four works. The test used the actual counts (e.g, 147 occurrences of the word “a” in Sense and Sensibility). Suppose that instead of the counts, the relative frequencies (e.g., 147/375 = 0.39) were presented in the table and the chi-square statistic was calculated using the relative frequencies rather than the counts. Would the value of the chi-square statistic be the same? What would happen if percentages were used?
