Column 5 (ROI) is the value in Column 4 minus Column 2, etc. 4 Choosing an Adequate (or the Best) Model to Use The adequacy of a given model can be determined from a chi-square goodness of fit test. For each model, a statistic Q = [(Oy Ey)2/Ey] is calculated where Oy is the observed response y and Ey is the expected response for y obtained from the model; this Q is compared with the table chi-square value with v degrees of freedom (where v = [number of observations] 1 – [number of parameters estimated by the model]).
