Linear trend test on proportions
A more powerful form of chi-square specifically tests for a linear trend in proportions across groups. For example, proportion remembered correctly using a memory aid.

Does the proportion correct change linearly over time?
The chi-square testing the presence of a linear trend is outputted by SPSS CROSSTABS as the Linear-by-Linear association term ( also called the Mantel-Haenszel statistic).
Linear-by-linear association = $$r^text{2} (N-1)$$
where r is the Pearson correlation of the rows (correct/incorrect) with the columns (group) and N is the total sample size.
The lack of fit is the difference between the Pearson chi-square value and the linear-by-linear one.

So there is a linear trend providing a reasonable fit.
Denoting the time points by –1,0 and 1 and regressing these on the observed proportions correct give regression estimates of the above linear trend. The Pearson chi-square lack of fit term is (O-E)*(O-E)/E where O are observed table frequencies and E are expected frequencies using the expected proportions from the linear regression.
