Probably your table is too wide for the \textwidth you have. You can play with different parameters to make it fit between the margins, but it's hard to say which without a full code. — Bernard, Jul 20 '18 at 08:41
The relevant part of the code – this includes the document class, font size, packages determining the layout, &c. — Bernard, Jul 20 '18 at 08:44
if you would consider my answer on your question (https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/442333/how-to-generate-a-table-as-below-in-latex) , this will not happen. — Zarko, Jul 20 '18 at 08:57
yes, it didnt happen, but when I started filling the text, the space between the columns disappeared — Lulo Malesori, Jul 20 '18 at 08:59
then you have three options: (i) use smaller fonts in table, (ii) increase \textwidth locally in table or rotate table (use landscape page orsidewaystable environment. please edit your question and in table example provide code for rows with the longer text in cells. — Zarko, Jul 20 '18 at 09:25
I edited the question and now the code of the document and table is showed — Lulo Malesori, Jul 20 '18 at 09:41

Zarko · Answer 1 · 2018-08-11T14:28:14.153

based on my answer on your question how-to-generate-a-table-as-below-in-latex. added are

real names in columns headers
real items in the first column
use of threeparttable, which enable to use \tnote (in column headers, see mwe below)

use os smaller font size (since your table is a bit to wide for space of \textwidth)

Here is one possibility for your table. I don't of course have your class, so I used book instead, and added \usepackage{mathpazo} (I'm not sure if the font used is actually Palatino, I'm terrible at recognizing fonts, but I don't think it's standard Computer Modern at least.)

I used S columns (from siunitx) instead of p columns, and reduced the fontsize and \tabcolsep (space between columns), as well as removing the padding at the start and end of each row.

For the multi-line column headings, I used a macro made by egreg in https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/19678, for making manual linebreaks in a table cell.

\documentclass[11pt]{book} 
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc} 
\usepackage{geometry}

% font package added for example only
