Description
Summary:This dataset example introduces researchers to two-way scatter plots. Two-way scatter plots, often simply called scatter plots, allow researchers to explore graphically the relationship between two continuous variables. This example uses a subset of data from the U.S. Statistical Abstracts, 2012, looking specifically at smoking rates for men and women across the 50 U.S. states plus Washington, DC. Understanding the dispersion of smoking rates across the states is important for evaluating health behaviour and possible health policies in the U.S.
