* '''[[w:Cross tabulation|Cross tabulation]]''' (or '''crosstabs''' for short) is a [[w:statistics|statistical]] process that summarizes [[w:categorical data|categorical data]] to create a [[w:contingency table|contingency table]].
* A '''[[w:crosstab|crosstab]]''' is another name for a [[w:contingency table|contingency table]], which is a type of table created by [[w:Cross tabulation|crosstabulation]]. In survey research (e.g., polling, market research), a "crosstab" is any table showing [[w:summary statistic|summary statistic]]s. Commonly, crosstabs in survey research are concatenations of multiple different tables. For example, the crosstab below combines multiple contingency tables and tables of averages. ( Wikipedia )
