Hi friends, I get different values for McNemar's test in R and SPSS. Which one should i rely on when the p values differ. I came across this problem when i started learning R and seriously give up on SPSS or any other proprietary software. Thank u in advance
Output in SPSS follows *Crosstab* hsc Total ABN NE ABN tvs ABN Count 40 3 43 Row % 93.0% 7.0% 100.0% COL% 78.4% 30.0% 70.5% NE Count 11 7 18 Row % 61.1% 38.9% 100.0% COL% 21.6% 70.0% 29.5% Total Count 51 10 61 Row % 83.6% 16.4% 100.0% COL% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% * Chi-Square Tests* Value Exact Sig.
