Two-Dimensional Index of Departure from the Symmetry Model for Square Contingency Tables with Nominal Categories
In the analysis of two-way contingency tables, the degree of departure from independence is measured using measures of association between row and column variables (e.g., Yule’s coefficients of association and of colligation, Cramér’s coefficient, and Goodman and Kruskal’s coefficient). On the other...

description |
In the analysis of two-way contingency tables, the degree of departure from independence is measured using measures of association between row and column variables (e.g., Yule’s coefficients of association and of colligation, Cramér’s coefficient, and Goodman and Kruskal’s coefficient). On the other hand, in the analysis of square contingency tables with the same row and column classifications, we are interested in measuring the degree of departure from symmetry rather than independence. Over past years, many studies have proposed various types of indexes based on their power divergence (or diversity index) to represent the degree of departure from symmetry. This study proposes a two-dimensional index to measure the degree of departure from symmetry in terms of the log odds of each symmetric cell with respect to the main diagonal of the table. By measuring the degree of departure from symmetry in terms of the log odds of each symmetric cell, the analysis results are easier to interpret than existing indexes. Numerical experiments show the utility of the proposed two-dimensional index. We show the usefulness of the proposed two-dimensional index by using real data. |
