Abstract: Abstract In the first stage of data analysis we learned how to examine variables and survey traits individually, or univariately. In this chapter we’ll learn how to assess the association between two variables using methods known as bivariate analyses. This is where statistics starts getting interesting – practically as well as theoretically. This is because univariate analysis is rarely satisfying in real life. People want to know things like the strength of a relationship
