Abstract
For the interpretation of a two-way contingency table cross-classification, based on two hierarchies, new indexes are developed, able at evaluating relative contribution of either hierarchy nodes to the other’s nodes or partitions. Indexes are based on groups’ inertia projection onto the orthogonal basis, associated to the explanatory hierarchy, in a vector space with χ2 metrics. An application based on Lombardy municipalities 1991 Census data is given.
