Abstract

CHIPENDALE is a versatile program for constructing and analyzing contingency tables. It includes data sets drawn from National Opinion Research Center (NORC) General Social Surveys, but also allows for the analysis of user-defined data sets. It is primarily for use in sociology classes, especially introductory courses in general sociology, social problems, research methods, and social statistics.
