A Lexis diagram is a graphical representation used in demography and epidemiology to visualize the relationship between age, period, and cohort. It helps researchers analyze how different cohorts (groups of individuals born in the same time period) experience various life events, such as births, deaths, or illnesses, over time. The diagram typically consists of: - **Horizontal axis:** Represents time or calendar years (the period). - **Vertical axis:** Represents age.
