    Level of significance

    What level of significance for a chi square test would you require for a distribution to fit "good enough"? 90 %? 95 %? 99 % ?

    Of course, the larger the better, but one should probably demand a higher significance level the more data one has, right?

    It depends on your own preference.

    95% is usually considered to be enough.
