A researcher is interested in determining if men and women select different majors in college. She collects data on the frequencies that men and women select from five different majors (History, English, Psychology, Biology, and Economics) at a small college. She uses a Chi-square to analyze her data and determines that her obtained statistic is significant (p<.05).

What is the design of this experiment and what is the scale of measurement? Next, explain if she used the proper statistical procedure and what the result means?
