Use this profile to understand the building block briefly, place it in the model, and switch to the 360° assessment when needed.
Executable approach: can be applied and produces an outcome.
What organizes, connects, or makes decisions possible.
Cohort analysis compares groups that share a starting characteristic across multiple time periods.
The method comes from demography, epidemiology, and social research, where groups sharing a starting characteristic are compared over time. Product and marketing analytics applied the design to signup, purchase, or usage cohorts.
Group people by a shared starting point, track the same intervals for each cohort, and compare trajectories instead of one aggregate number.
