dude i think ur wrong abt the chi square...
if the value lies in the range ABOVE 0.05 it is said the the difference is not significant and the null hypothesis is accepted
while if it is below 0.05, the chance that the difference is caused by random error is only 5% so the null hypothesis is rejected...and we get that the difference is caused by a certain factor other than experimental error.

hey even cie book says the same....if the probability obtained is greater than 0.05 (5%)...which includes 0.1 ,0.2..this means it is not significant(due to chance) and if we get a probability that is less than 0.05 it means its significant(not due to chance)....this the the chi square test....if its the t-test....if the value obtained is greater than the critical value it is significant.......
