Cohort (statistics)

Uncommon card · No. 185139

In statistics, epidemiology, marketing and demography, a cohort is a group of subjects who share a defining characteristic (typically subjects who experienced a common event in a selected time period, such as birth or graduation). It is often used synonymously with social generation in demographics, marketing, and social science, where it means "people within a delineated population who experience the same significant events within a given period of time."
