术语多变量和多变量在公共卫生文献中经常互换使用。然而，这些术语实际上代表了两种非常不同的分析类型。我们定义了2种类型的分析，并评估了在《美国公共卫生杂志》上发表的1年跨度的文章中使用统计术语多变量的流行率。我们的目标是做出明确的区分，并确定使这些类型的分析彼此如此不同的细微差别。
The terms multivariate and multivariable are often used interchangeably in the public health literature. However, these terms actually represent 2 very distinct types of analyses. We define the 2 types of analysis and assess the prevalence of use of the statistical term multivariate in a 1-year span of articles published in the American Journal of Public Health. Our goal is to make a clear distinction and to identify the nuances that make these types of analyses so distinct from one another.
