Homogeneous Homogeneous PopulationsPopulations
Two distributions are called Two distributions are called homogeneoushomogeneous if they exhibit the if they exhibit the same proportions within categories.same proportions within categories.
For example, if two colleges’ student For example, if two colleges’ student bodies are each 55% female and bodies are each 55% female and 45% male, then the distributions are 45% male, then the distributions are homogeneous.homogeneous.
ExampleExample
Suppose a teacher teaches two Suppose a teacher teaches two sections of Statistics and uses two sections of Statistics and uses two different teaching methods.different teaching methods.
At the end of the semester, he gives At the end of the semester, he gives both sections the same final exam both sections the same final exam and he compares the grade and he compares the grade distributions.distributions.

Under the assumption of homogeneity Under the assumption of homogeneity ((HH00), the rows should exhibit the same ), the rows should exhibit the same proportionsproportions..
We can get the best estimate of those We can get the best estimate of those proportions by proportions by poolingpooling the rows. the rows.
That is, add the rows (i.e., find the That is, add the rows (i.e., find the column totals), and then compute the column totals), and then compute the column proportions from them.column proportions from them.
