Testing for Independence Between Early Discharge and Rehospitalization of Newborn Is it safe to discharge newborns from the hospital early after their births? The accompanying table shows results from a study of this issue. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that whether the newborn was discharged early or late is independent of whether the newborn was rehospitalized within a week of discharge. Does the conclusion change if the significance level is changed to 0.01?
