[Corpora-List] Statistical tests for corpus studies

[Josephine Lo]

Dear all,

As a lay-man to statistics, I wish to get some advice on the tests suitable
for comparing the frequency of a specific type of word in corpora of
different genre. Having in mind are Chi-square and ANOVA but I'm not sure
they are the appropriate ones.

Thanks in advance
