- **H3 REJECT**: value × segment, U=73.5, p=0.005, r=0.51. Residents BETTER value. FLIPS hypothesis.
- **H5 REJECT**: satisfaction dims, chi2=13.83, p=0.008. Portion/price outlier.
- **H8 REJECT**: reorder × satisfaction, rho=0.544, p=0.020
- **H4 BORDERLINE**: r=0.323, p=0.051. \~5 more respondents would flip.

## Q\&A PREP

| Topic                   | Answer                                                                                   |
| ----------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Ideal sample size       | 381 (Cochran’s, 95% CI, 5% margin, pop \~37,000)                                         |
| Software                | Python (scipy.stats, statsmodels, pandas)                                                |
| Why Fisher’s exact      | Expected cells < 5 at n=37                                                               |
| Why Mann-Whitney        | Ordinal Likert, non-normal                                                               |
| Competitive positioning | **NOT in survey.** RO3 via secondary price comparison only.                              |
| Catering data (RO5)     | **NOT in survey.** Owner consultation only. 10% revenue, format ideal for events.        |
| H3 reversal             | Original predicted residents lower value. Data shows opposite. Students price-sensitive. |
| Bonferroni              | Corrected alpha = 0.005. H3 (p=0.005) STILL significant. H5/H8 would not survive.        |
| RO coverage             | RO1,2,4 full. RO3 partial. RO5 secondary only.                                           |
