Table B.1 : Critical Values of the Chi, G, & t distributions

                          (for p = 0.05)

- G-values for evaluating the null hypothesis of "no difference" between the observed distribution and the
          expected distribution at the alpha significance level of p = 0.05.
- t-values for evaluating the null hypothesis of "no difference" vs. the alternative of "difference" between two
         means at the alpha significance level of p = 0.05.

If the calculated value exceeds the tabulated one, reject the null hypothesis at p = 0.05.
