multivariate
Having multiple variables
Multivariate describes something involving multiple variables at once.
Multivariate analysis examines relationships among several factors simultaneously—how age, income, and education might together predict voting behavior, rather than looking at each in isolation.
The term appears mainly in statistics, research methods, and data science: multivariate regression, multivariate testing.
