Post-Stratification Weighting
Adjust your data to match known population characteristics, such as age, gender, or income levels.
Rim Weighting (Raking)
Balance multiple variables simultaneously, such as age, gender, and geographic region.
Design Weighting
Account for unequal probabilities of selection in your sample.
Scaling Weights
Easily scale weights ensuring they sum to a specific total, making your data consistent across different analyses.
You can publish your weighting insights, other visualizations, and your entire presentation with just one click. Make it interactive by adding filter drop-downs and hovers. Or export your presentation to PowerPoint or PDF. And if you have new data, switch the data file, and everything will update automatically, including your weighting.
Don’t just stop at weighting; Displayr is the complete tool for all your analysis, visualization, and reporting.
Weighting is a statistical method used to adjust the influence of individual data points in a dataset to ensure the results are representative of a target population. It compensates for imbalances in a sample by assigning “weights” to each response or observation, effectively increasing or decreasing its impact on the analysis.
For example:
Key purpose of weighting: Weighting ensures that your analysis reflects the true characteristics of your population, providing accurate, unbiased insights.
Imagine you surveyed 1,000 people:

What is weighting, and why is it important?
Weighting is a statistical method used to adjust data so that it accurately represents a target population. It ensures that over- or under-represented groups in your sample are properly accounted for, eliminating bias and providing reliable insights.
When should I use weighting in my analysis?
You should use weighting whenever your sample does not match the characteristics of your target population. For example, if your sample has more respondents from one demographic group than another, weighting adjusts the data to correct the imbalance.
