Sig 23.188a 022 0 cells (0.0%) have expected frequencies less than 5. The minimum expected cell frequency is 138.0

Explanation / Answer

H0 : the patterns of males or females who do cosmetic surgery for physical or cosmetic reasons are similar

H1 : the patterns of males or females who do cosmetic surgery for physical or cosmetic reasons are not similar

Decision rule : p value < 0.05, Then reject H0

Given That ,

p value = 0.000 < 0.05

Reject H0

we conclude that  there is sufficient evidence of the patterns of males or females who do cosmetic surgery for physical or cosmetic reasons are similar.
