How to Be STUPYX
(how to make a good graph of your data)
Scale
-increments(what you count by) on y-axis
are the same all the way across
-increments on the x-axis are the same all
the way across
-increments are appropriate
-Origin is at 0,0
-break graph if data is close together but
far from 0

Units
Units of Measurement
Plot
labeled on any axis that has numbers
is the right type of graph (bar, line,
etc.)
has all of the data on it
y-axis
x-axis
is easy to read
- is labeled with the DV
- is labeled with the IV
