Simple Range Bar Summaries for Groups of Cases

  1. Select one variable and move it into the Category Axis field. Range bars are charted for each category of this variable. This variable may be numeric, string, or long string.
  2. Select one dichotomous variable and move it into the Define 2 Groups By field. This variable defines the two groups that the bars represent. This variable may be numeric, string, or long string.
  3. Select one of the alternatives in the Bars Represent group to specify how the data are represented on the scale axis.

If the scale axis displays a function of another summary variable, select Other statistic (e.g., mean) and then select a numeric variable to be summarized. To change the summary function, click Change Statistic.

To panel the chart, move one or more categorical variables into the Panel By group. See the topic Paneled Charts for more information.
