Dotplot Matching
Activity 7-1 from "Workshop Statistics: Discovery with Data" by Allan J. Rossman (@allanjrossman) and Beth L. Chance (3rd Edition) The activity is also freely available on Rossman's University webpage. Screenshots of the dotplots were taken from this PDF: https://statweb.calpoly.edu/arossman/stat312/handout3.pdf Additionally, Rossman has shared a blog post including this activity. https://askgoodquestions.blog/2020/09/28/65-matching-variables-to-graphs/ In this post, he states that this activity is "adapted from Activity-Based Statistics, a wonderful collection based on an NSF-funded project led by Dick Scheaffer in the 1990s. This variation is also strongly influenced by Beth Chance’s earlier adaptations of this activity, which included generating the graphs from data collected from her students on various variables."
