Title

    meansdplot --    Plot means and standard deviations for groups

Syntax

        meansdplot depvar grpvar [if] [in] [, median outer(real) inner(real) noconnect noshade mlabel(marker_label) * ]

    options               description
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Main
      median              plot medians in addition to means
      outer()             set the value for the outer fence (default none)
      inner()             set the value for the inner fence (default = 1)
      noconnect           do not connect means with a line
      noshade             do not shade the inner fence area
      mlabel()            marker labels for points beyond the inner fence (default none)
      *                   other graphics options
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Remarks

    meansdplot plots means and standard deviations for multiple groups.  This command is meant to be used in conjunction with tables of
    means and standard deviations to graphically inspect data before running anova.  There is an optional outwe fence which is useful in
    screening for outliers.  meansdplot does not produce a plot of confidence intervals and should not be interpreted as such.

Examples

. meansdplot write prog
. meansdplot write prog, outer(2)
. meansdplot write prog, outer(2) noshade noconnect
. meansdplot write prog, xlabel(1 "gen" 2 "acad" 3 "voc")
