Preferred term

cohort analysis  

Definition(s)

  • Cohort analysis, a general strategy for examining data rather than a statistical technique, has become increasingly popular in the social sciences in the past few decades, especially during the last quarter of the 20th century. Useful in assessing the consequences of aging (of humans or other entities) and in understanding social and cultural change, cohort analysis has also attracted attention because it presents an unusually intriguing methodological challenge.
