Expected range. By default, each distinct value of the variable is defined as a category.
To establish categories within a specific range, select Use specified range and enter
integer values for lower and upper bounds. Categories are established for each integer
value within the inclusive range, and cases with values outside of the bounds are
excluded. For example, if you specify a lowerbound value of 1 and an upperbound
value of 4, only the integer values of 1 through 4 are used for the chi-square test.
