Two Way Frequency Tables

Front

What is a two-way frequency table?

Back

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

Front

How do you calculate the percentage of a category in a two-way frequency table?

Back

To calculate the percentage of a category, divide the frequency of that category by the total frequency and multiply by 100.

Front

What does the total frequency represent in a two-way frequency table?

Back

The total frequency represents the sum of all frequencies in the table, indicating the total number of observations.

Front

What is the purpose of using a two-way frequency table?

Back

The purpose is to organize data to easily compare and analyze the relationship between two categorical variables.

Front

How can you find the marginal frequencies in a two-way frequency table?

Back

Marginal frequencies are found by summing the frequencies across rows or columns.

Front

What is a joint frequency in a two-way frequency table?

Back

Joint frequency refers to the frequency count for a specific combination of categories from the two variables.

Front

What is the difference between joint frequency and marginal frequency?

Back

Joint frequency counts the occurrences of a specific combination of categories, while marginal frequency counts the total occurrences for a single category.

Front

How do you interpret the data in a two-way frequency table?

Back

Interpretation involves analyzing the frequencies to understand the relationship between the two variables, such as trends or patterns.

Front

What is a conditional frequency in a two-way frequency table?

Back

Conditional frequency is the frequency of a category given a specific condition or category of the other variable.

Front

How do you calculate conditional percentages in a two-way frequency table?

Back

To calculate conditional percentages, divide the conditional frequency by the total frequency of the condition and multiply by 100.
