You can also change the font style and size, I tend to prefer Arial 10. If you elect to change each bar individually, you will need to click the segment twice to select the group individually.
Finally, I chose to make the upper and lower quartile bars the same color, added a border (1 pt) around each set of bars in black, and deleted the border around the graph. I like to delete the Legend and format the y-axis for 1 decimal place. Next click the symbol () and then highlight the top row (in this example it is Row 2) in your data set. To replace the x-axis with your data labels: Click the axis, right click and choose ‘Select Data’ and click ‘Edit’ under “Horizontal (Category) Axis Labels’. The steps that follow are purely aesthetic. Your box and whisker plot is basically completed. Click Fill on the left and click the radio button for ‘No fill’. Select the blue 25 th percentile bars again, and under ‘Chart Tools’ click Format… and then expand the ‘Shape Styles’ panel to open the ‘Format Data Series’ dialog. At the Negative Error Value only (do not put anything in Positive Error Value), click the symbol () and then highlight the ‘Min’ row (in this example it is Row 13) in your difference formula table that is beneath your data set. Under ‘Display’, click the radio button for ‘Minus’ and ‘Cap’, then under ‘Error Amount’ click the radio button for ‘Custom’. Now click on the lowest bar (25 th Pct, blue segment) and click, Chart Tools… Layout… Error Bars… More Error Bar Options. Your graph should resemble the following: At the Positive Error Value only (do not put anything in Negative Error Value), click the symbol () and then highlight the ‘Max’ row (in this example it is Row 14) in your difference formula table that is beneath your data set. Under ‘Display’, click the radio button for ‘Plus’ and ‘Cap’, then under ‘Error Amount’ click the radio button for ‘Custom’. Then click, Chart Tools… Layout… Error Bars… More Error Bar Options Click the upper bar (75 th Pct, green segment) once so that all of the groups are selected. With some editing, we can now create a Box and Whisker plot. Excel will generate something that looks like this (see below). #Create box and whisker plot in excel for mac how to#
Watch the following Youtube video that describes how to make these graphs: Then click Insert… Column… Stacked Column (the 2 nd option under 2-D Column).
Highlight the 25 th Pct, 50 th Pct, and 75 th Pct rows (Row 10-12 from Column B-H). Calculate the following difference formulas beneath your data table. Max: the maximum value in your data set. Min: the minimum value observed in your data set. You can either calculate the figures from your data directly or copy and paste from STATISTICA (or from Descriptive Statistics from a similar program). 
Arrange the data in your excel spreadsheet as follows:.
