The degrees of freedom for a Chi-square grid are equal to the number of rows minus one times the number of columns minus one: that is, (R-1)(C-1). In our simple 2x2 grid, the degrees of independence are therefore (2-1)(2-1), or 1!
The number of degrees of freedom for an entire table or set of columns, is df = (r-1) x (c-1), where r is the number of rows, and c the number of columns.
Contingency analysis is the approach we will use to test whether or not there is an association between two categorical variables. As with the goodness-of-fit test we can use a chi-square test statistic to test our null hypothesis.
In general, the expected value for any particular cell in a contingency table is given by multiplying the associated row and column totals and then dividing by the grand total. This is just a short cut for the full calculation we just worked through.

As it turns out, the chi-squared test statistic follows a Chi-squared distribution when the null hypothesis is true. For two way tables, the degrees of freedom is equal to: d f = (number of rows minus 1) × (number of columns minus 1) .
The two by two or fourfold contingency table represents two classifications of a set of counts or frequencies. The rows represent two classifications of one variable (e.g. outcome positive/outcome negative) and the columns represent two classifications of another variable (e.g. intervention/no intervention).
Normal distribution, also known as the Gaussian distribution, is a probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean. The normal distribution appears as a "bell curve" when graphed.
The table is essentially 2 by 2, but it is augmented by a third column that equals the sum of the two leftmost columns, and also augmented by a third row that equals the sum of the top two rows.
