The results of a simulation study are presented in which the χ 2 ‐and the information theoretic approach to association measurement were compared to one another. It could be shown that neither the maximal values nor the minimal values obtainable for a given sample size coincide in all cases. The underlying association concepts are defined; implications are discussed.
