- Graphs
- Bar chart
- The height of each bar represents the frequency of each category
- Space should be left between bars.
- When you have data that isn't continuous
- Use this there are categories of behaviour particularly for observations
- Histogram
- They are like bar charts but show the ‘frequency density’ (they show how the data is distributed) across categories
- The bars may have unequal widths
- The bars must be joined together
- When there are categories of behaviour on a continuous scale, that have been divided into categories
- Scattergraph
- Used to represent relationships between data
- Plots are not joined
- Used when a correlation has been conducted
- Pie Chart
- Alternative to a bar chart. Each pie slice is a category of behaviour.
- Used when there is non-continuous data
- Divide each frequency by the total frequencies and multiply by 360 degrees
- Line Graph
- Alternative to a histogram, a dot represents each bar and a line connects each dot
- Used to show how something changes over time
- Can be useful to compare 2 or more conditions
- Bar chart
