Abstract

The eye movements of six university students are measured when they interpret histograms and case-value plots. Three strategies are reported: a histogram interpretation strategy, a case-value plot interpretation strategy and an elemination strategy. Most participants seem to use one single strategy for both histograms and case-value plots.
