Analysis of group differences in processing speed: Brinley plots, Q-Q plots, and other conspiracies.
Researchers in a growing number of areas (including cognitive development, aging, and neuropsychology) use Brinley plots to compare the processing speed of different groups. Ratcliff, Spieler, and McKoon (2000) argued that a Brinley plot is a quantile-quantile (Q-Q) plot and that therefore Brinley plot regression slopes measure standard deviation ratios rather than relative speed of processing....
متن کاملQ-Q plots with confidence for testing Weibull and exponential distributions
One of the basic graphical methods for assessing the validity of a distributional assumption is the Q-Q plot which compares quantiles of a sample against the quantiles of the distribution. In this paper, we focus on how a Q-Q plot can be augmented by intervals for all the points so that, if the population distribution is Weibull or exponential then all the points should fall inside the correspo...
متن کاملBivariate Qq-plots and Spider Web Plots
Abstract: QQ-plots are extremely useful in univariate data analysis. In this article, Koltchinskii (1997) and Chaudhuri’s (1996) definition of multivariate quantile is used to develop analogous plots for bivariate data. Bivariate qq-plots are exhibited for comparing a sample to a given population distribution (the bivariate normal), and for comparing two or more bivariate samples. The plots are...
متن کاملFunnel plots in meta-analysis
Funnel plots are a visual tool for investigating publication and other bias in meta-analysis. They are simple scatterplots of the treatment effects estimated from individual studies (horizontal axis) against a measure of study size (vertical axis). The name “funnel plot” is based on the precision in the estimation of the underlying treatment effect increasing as the sample size of component stu...
متن کاملMeta-analysis, funnel plots and sensitivity analysis.
Publication bias is a major problem, perhaps the major problem, in meta-analysis (or systematic reviews). Small studies are more likely to be published if their results are 'significant' than if their results are negative or inconclusive, and so the studies available for review are biased in favour of those with positive outcomes. Correcting for this bias is not possible without making untestab...
