The drawing

What a mosaic plot is.

A mosaic plot compares two or more categorical variables. Each block represents a category combination, so the relative area or stacked share shows how common that combination is.

It is useful when you want to inspect composition rather than a single total. Compare the segments within each group first, then look for groups whose mix differs from the others.

FAQ

Common questions

What is a mosaic plot used for?

It shows relationships between categorical variables by comparing the proportions of category combinations.

How do I interpret a mosaic plot?

Compare the size or share of each segment within a group. A segment that is much larger or smaller in one group suggests an association worth investigating.

What data works well in a mosaic plot?

Counts or percentages for combinations of categories, such as plan and satisfaction, treatment and outcome, or region and product choice.

How is a mosaic plot different from a treemap?

A mosaic plot compares categorical variables and their combinations. A treemap is designed for hierarchical part-to-whole data.
