This tutorial on the display of data in the “Focus on Data” series deals with principles for the effective and transparent display of data. Scientific advancements happen when theory and data interact. Scientists confirm research theories empirically by checking them against information from empirical studies. The design of empirical studies must reflect all current theory, and empirical experiments must be planned carefully and efficiently. Experimental data must be analyzed with appropriate methods that reflect the way the experiment was carried out. Data from experiments confirm or refute research hypotheses but must also suggest modifications to existing theory if existing theory does not fit the experimental data. Thus, experiments must not be too narrow. The continual interaction of theory and data sharpens our understanding. The optimal display of data is vital to an accurate understanding of the results of an experiment, as the improper display of data can lead to erroneous interpretation and conclusions.
