cross-tabulation · survey_workflow · en
A cross-tabulation shows the joint frequency distribution of two categorical variables: one variable's categories are rows, the other's are columns, and each cell contains a count or percentage.
Use row percentages to compare column outcomes across row groups; use column percentages to compare row composition across column groups.
Limitations
- A crosstab describes association, not causation.
- Very sparse or high-cardinality tables can be unstable and difficult to interpret.
