We have 2 groups reporting on the major problem for
attending college.  We are trying to see if the different
response numbers are statistically significant.  For example
one group responded with an answer 13 times and the other
group 32 times.  Since a chi square takes the mean of the
two, it doesn't show how to compare one to the other.  We
have no expected mean since these are opinions.  Do we have
to assume that equal %s of people will choose each category,
even though we categorized them after reading the answers on
the surveys?  Thank you for your time.
