Please note - the variables used in these directions may not match the variables you are using to create side-by-side boxplots.

Side-by-side boxplots are used to compare the categories of a categorical variable for a single quantitative variable. To create side-by-side boxplots (or stacked Boxplots) in StatCrunch:

1. Select Graph Boxplot

2. In the Boxplot dialogue box:

Select Colmn(s): move the appropriate quantitative variable from the box on the left to the box on the right.

Click on the Group by: drop-down menu and select the appropriate categorical variable.

Note: if you would prefer stacked boxplots as opposed to side-by-side boxplots, check the Draw boxes horizontally box (as depicted above).
