# Viewing the multinomial confidence intervals of a category column

Multinomial confidence intervals indicate the amount of statistical uncertainty associated with proportion estimates, assuming the data is randomly drawn from an underlying population.

To view the confidence interval for each category in a category column:

1. In the Summary view, select the category column whose confidence intervals you wish to view
2. Ensure no covariate is selected in the covariate table
3. Select Confidence Bounds from the pop-up menu below the covariate view
4. A bar chart will appear with each category’s confidence interval. The gray area represents the bounds of the confidence interval.

The lower bounds of the confidence intervals are also visualized in the pie chart labeled "Estimated Population."
