Description
Summary:This work introduces readers to cross-tabulation. Cross-tabulation allows researchers to compare the distributions of two categorical variables to see if they are related to each other. This example uses a subset of data from the 2012 American National Election Study (ANES). It presents a cross-tabulation between party identification and views on same-sex marriage. Results from an analysis like this could help researchers understand how people form opinions on sensitive political issues.
