Hi all,
Sorry, this is probably a very basic question relating to boxplots. So, I've got two continuous variables - the number of times words have been seen, and the length of words (4 lengths - 3, 6, 8, and 11 letters). I'd like to create a boxplot with the number of times words have been seen on the y axis and word length on the x axis. However, I also have one experimental manipulation I'd like to plot - whether the words were seen in someone's first language (L1) or second language (L2). I'd like to have boxplots for L1 and L2 next to each other for each different word length. So there would be two boxplots for 3 letter words, one for L1 and one for L2. Then there would be two for 6 letter words, L1 and L2, and so on. In total, there would be 8 boxplots on the figure.
The only thing I could imagine is a bar graph with error bars, which doesn't really match the type of data I have, or different charts for L1 and L2, which makes the comparison less obvious. Is there a way to produce the type of figure I'm after? Thanks so much for any help!
