Hi there.
I had an experiment with 6 treatment groups (T1-T6). There were 96 animals in each treatment group (N=96). I want to compare the Mortality% between the 6 treatments statistically. The data are shown below. Could you please advise? Thank you!
Treatment Mortality%
T1 2.1%
T2 4.2%
T3 0%
T4 2.1%
T5 7.3%
T6 4.2%
You could do a Chi-Squared test, and/or a Fisher's EXACT test, as shown. I am lazy and only typed the first three treatment groups.
data have;
input treatment $ died $ n;
cards;
T1 Y 2
T1 N 94
T2 Y 4
T2 N 92
T3 N 96
;
proc freq data=have;
tables treatment*died/chisq exact;
weight n;
run;
The Chi-squared test Prob is greater than 0.05, and in the Exact test the Pr<=P is also greater than 0.05, indicating no difference. If you run this on all 6 groups, you may get a different answer.
