Preferred term

bivariate analysis  

Definition

  • Bivariate analysis is a statistical analysis of a pair of variables. Such analysis can take the form of, for example, CROSS-TABULATION, SCATTERPLOT, CORRELATION, ONE-WAY ANOVA, or simple REGRESSION. It is a step often taken after a UNIVARIATE ANALYSIS of the DATA but prior to a multivariate analysis. [Source: The SAGE Encyclopedia of Social Science Research Methods; Bivariate Analysis]
