How do I recognize misrepresented data? SPI Recognize misrepresentations of published data in the media.

Statistical Displays  Bar Graph: shows the # of items by category.  Double Bar Graph  Box and Whisker Plot: shows measures of variation for a set of data (median, extremes, quartiles).  Double Box and Whisker Plot  Line Graph: shows change over time.  Line Plot: displays frequency.  Histogram: displays frequency of data divided into equal intervals (groups of data).  Stem and Leaf Plot: list of all the data.  Scatterplot: shows a relationship between two sets of data.  Circle Graph: compare sets of data as parts of a whole.
