Cross-tabulation, also known as contingency tables, is used to show the relationship between two or more variables. It provides a way to summarize and understand the patterns in the data. This technique is particularly useful when dealing with categorical variables, as it allows for an easy way to compare the frequencies and distributions of different categories. Both t-tests and parametric/non-parametric tests are used to compare means or test hypotheses, and are not applicable in this scenario.
