KROSS-tabz
Definition
A table format used to display the relationship between two or more categorical variables, often used in survey research to show how different demographic groups responded to specific questions.
Etymology
The word is a portmanteau of 'cross-tabulation,' which combines the prefix 'cross-' (meaning across or intersecting) and 'tabulation' (the act of arranging data in a table). It entered common statistical usage in the mid-20th century as computing made large-scale data analysis easier.
