Graphpad.com FAQs Find ANY word Find ALL words Find EXACT phrase What you can conclude when two error bars overlap (or don't)? FAQ# 1362 Last Modified 22-April-2010 It is tempting to look at whether two error bars overlap or not, and try to reach a conclusion about http://www.graphpad.com/support/faqid/1362/ whether the difference between means is statistically significant. Resist that temptation (Lanzante, 2005)! SD error bars https://skeetersays.wordpress.com/2008/07/30/on-the-use-of-error-bars/ SD error bars quantify the scatter among the values. Looking at whether the error bars overlap lets you compare the difference between the mean with the amount of scatter within the groups. But the t test also takes into account sample size. If the samples were larger with the same means and same standard deviations, the P value would be much smaller. If the error bars samples were smaller with the same means and same standard deviations, the P value would be larger. When the difference between two means is statistically significant (P < 0.05), the two SD error bars may or may not overlap. Likewise, when the difference between two means is not statistically significant (P > 0.05), the two SD error bars may or may not overlap. Knowing whether SD error bars overlap or not does not let you conclude whether difference between interpret error bars the means is statistically significant or not. SEM error bars SEM error bars quantify how precisely you know the mean, taking into account both the SD and sample size. Looking at whether the error bars overlap, therefore, lets you compare the difference between the mean with the precision of those means. This sounds promising. But in fact, you don’t learn much by looking at whether SEM error bars overlap. By taking into account sample size and considering how far apart two error bars are, Cumming (2007) came up with some rules for deciding when a difference is significant or not. But these rules are hard to remember and apply. Here is a simpler rule: If two SEM error bars do overlap, and the sample sizes are equal or nearly equal, then you know that the P value is (much) greater than 0.05, so the difference is not statistically significant. The opposite rule does not apply. If two SEM error bars do not overlap, the P value could be less than 0.05, or it could be greater than 0.05. If the sample sizes are very different, this rule of thumb does not always work. Confidence interval error bars Error bars that show the 95% confidence interval (CI) are wider than SE error bars. It doesn’t help to observe that two 95% CI error bars overlap, as the difference between the two means may or may not be statistical
people's lack of understanding of error bars in the graphical representation of data. The post is very interesting and I encourage people to take the quiz that he has posted on the correct interpretation of error bars.A particular comment on that post concerns me, and I am going to use this post to give my two cents on error bars and their importance in the understanding of data. Specifically I will try to address some misconceptions and problems with how people use and read error bars. The comment that concerns me is: I may, in the future, forget the exact definition of what the error bars mean, but I will still be capable of saying "Whoo, small error bar, that figure is probably pretty accurate" and "Whoa, look at that huge error bar, I'll use a bigger grain of salt to look at that figure". This comment frightens me. I can't help but to think about the book How to Lie With Statistics (link to book at powells). The main problem with this reasoning is that there are many ‘types' of error bars that are often included in scientific graphics, with most researchers choosing some multiple of either the standard error or the standard deviation. One can not just look at the length of the error bars and assume that it means accurate data (to get a bit picky on semantics - also, error bars do not reflect the accuracy of the data, rather it reflects the precision with which you can measure the data). It will all depend on which error measurement is being plotted, and it is highly variable among scientific papers. I tend to use error bars that are the length of 2 * Standard error for reasons I will get to in a bit, and thus relative to other graphics that usually plot 1 SE my data may seem ‘less accurate' to the reader, and that would be a shame and completely incorrect. The appropriate use of error bars Data that is plotted without error bars are data that cannot be put into relevant scientific context. Are two means the same? What is the measurement error on the observations? Is there a pattern of variabili
