CHI-SQUARE
Chi-Square
( )
This distribution was first described by the German statistician Friedrich Robert Helmert in
papers of 1875/1876 where he computed the samplin! distribution of the sample "ariance of a
normal population# Thus in German this was traditionally $nown as
the Helmertsche %&Helmertian&' or &Helmert distribution&#
The distribution was independently redisco"ered by the (n!lish mathematician )arl *earson in
the conte+t of !oodness of fit for which he de"eloped his *earson,s chi-s.uared test published
in %*earson 1/00' with computed table of "alues published in %(lderton 1/01' collected in
%*earson 1/12 pp# +++i3+++iii 16318 Table 455'# The name &chi-s.uared& ultimately deri"es
from *earson,s shorthand for the e+ponent in a multi"ariate normal distribution with the Gree$
letter 6hi writin! -789 for what would appear in modern notation as -7x
T

the co"ariance matri+'# The idea of a family of &chi-s.uared distributions& howe"er is not due to
*earson but arose as a further de"elopment due to Fisher in the 1/10s#
The chi-s.uared distribution has numerous applications in inferential statistics for instance
in chi-s.uared tests and in estimatin! "ariances# 5t enters the problem of estimatin! the mean of
a normally distributed population and the problem of estimatin! the slope of a re!ression line "ia
its role in <tudent=s t-distribution# 5t enters all analysis of "ariance problems "ia its role in the F-
distribution which is the distribution of the ratio of two independent chi-s.uared random
"ariables each di"ided by their respecti"e de!rees of freedom#
Followin! are some of the most common situations in which the chi-s.uared distribution arises
from a Gaussian-distributed sample#
