Two Way Tables

Front

What is a two-way table?

Back

A two-way table is a statistical table that displays the frequency distribution of two categorical variables, allowing for the analysis of the relationship between them.

Front

What is joint relative frequency?

Back

Joint relative frequency is the ratio of the frequency of a specific cell in a two-way table to the total number of observations, expressed as a percentage.

Front

How do you calculate joint relative frequency?

Back

To calculate joint relative frequency, divide the frequency of the specific cell by the grand total of all observations.

Front

What is conditional relative frequency?

Back

Conditional relative frequency is the ratio of the frequency of a specific category within a subset of data to the total frequency of that subset, expressed as a percentage.

Front

How do you calculate conditional relative frequency?

Back

To calculate conditional relative frequency, divide the frequency of the specific category by the total frequency of the subset.

Front

What does the term 'marginal frequency' refer to?

Back

Marginal frequency refers to the totals found in the margins of a two-way table, representing the total counts for each category.

Front

What is the purpose of a two-way table?

Back

The purpose of a two-way table is to summarize and analyze the relationship between two categorical variables.

Front

How can you find the total number of respondents in a two-way table?

Back

The total number of respondents can be found by summing all the frequencies in the table.

Front

What is the significance of the grand total in a two-way table?

Back

The grand total represents the overall count of all observations and is used to calculate relative frequencies.

Front

What is the difference between joint and conditional relative frequency?

Back

Joint relative frequency considers the relationship between two variables, while conditional relative frequency focuses on one variable given a specific condition of another.
