Is this an example of a univariate analysis? Nonstatistician needs help with terms. Is the following an example of a univariate analysis?: Chances of getting a job at Microsoft with respect to demographic variables such as age, gender, race, etc. The odds are calculated both for individual variables (say, gender) and for combinations of variables (say, gender + age). What's the best way to describe such a study?
"This study consists of a _______ analysis of Microsoft employees to determine the correlation between getting a job at Microsoft and demographic variables such as . . ."
What's stumping me is the presence of multiple variables, so how can this be a univariate analysis?
Thank you!

This is a great question.  Univariate means you have a single outcome you are studying -- chances of getting a job.  To describe the multiple factors involved in analyzing this outcome, you would describe the analysis as multivariable.  This refers to the independent variables age, gender, etc.  The study could be described as both univariate (one outcome) and multivariable (many factors).  The term multivariate would describe analyzing more than one outcome in the same analysis.
