Yes. Chi‑square tests can handle contingency tables of – not just 2×2 tables. For example, a 3×3 contingency table (three treatment groups × three severity levels of a disease) is perfectly valid and Prism will analyze it correctly. The only important modification is that for tables larger than 2×2, Prism does not calculate effect size measures such as odds ratios or relative risks. If you need pairwise comparisons between specific groups or outcomes after a significant overall chi‑square test, you should perform post‑hoc tests (e.g., Bonferroni‑corrected pairwise chi‑square tests) manually or using additional statistical software.
