In a study of the effectiveness of an antipsychotic drug, patients treated with the drug were compared to patients receiving a placebo. The contingency table of results is below: Relapse No Relapse Drug 639 1488 2127 Placebo 698 370 1068 1337 1858 3195 Assume that you calculated a Chi Square value of 364.36. If you were using an alpha value of .05, which of the following would be the correct conclusion to make? The antipsychotic drug is significantly more effective at preventing relapse than the placebo. The placebo is more effective at preventing relapse than the antipsychotic drug. There is no difference in level of relapse based on whether you received the antipsychotic drug or placebo You cannot conclude anything about the relationship between type of drug and relapse based on this information
