Unstacked Data Format

The quantitative data is distributed across multiple columns. Each column represents a group of the categorical variable.

With the datafile open in a StatCrunch worksheet:

Select Graph Histogram.

Under Select Columns: select the columns denoting the comparison groups. These are the groups of the explanatory variable. (Note: you may need to hold down the CTRL or COMMAND key to make multiple selections.)

Leave Group by: blank.

In the Markers: area, check Mean to display the means with the histograms.

Scroll down to the For multiple graphs: area and change Columns per page to 3 (this will graph the histograms on one page). Also in the For multiple graphs: area check Use same X-axis and Use same Y-axis (Graphs with the same scale are easier to compare.)

Press Compute!
