Copyright © 2010, 2007, 2004 Pearson Education, Inc. Contingency Tables allow us to look at two categorical variables together (how values are distributed for one variable, given another).
13
Copyright © 2010, 2007, 2004 Pearson Education, Inc. Marginal Distributions Values in the margins:
14
Copyright © 2010, 2007, 2004 Pearson Education, Inc. Conditional Distributions Values inside the table, not in the margins:
15
Copyright © 2010, 2007, 2004 Pearson Education, Inc. Segmented Bar Charts A segmented bar chart, a pie chart in bar form each bar adds to 100% divided proportionally by each conditional cell
16

Not independent = association Independent = no association **if the distribution of alive/dead by class was the same = class/survival would be independent
