Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The tool described in the question is a cross-site analytic matrix. This tool is designed to help researchers see differences and similarities across cases or sites by organizing data in a table-like format. It allows the researcher to compare and contrast different aspects of each case, making it easier to identify patterns and themes. The other options (site-ordered descriptive matrix, time-ordered matrix, and causal model matrix) do not accurately describe this type of tool.
