Cramer's V is specifically designed to measure association between two nominal variables regardless of the table size, making it preferable for non-square tables. It normalizes the chi-square statistic, allowing for comparison across tables of different sizes and shapes, unlike the contingency coefficient which can be affected by the table dimensions.
