How to display star for significance in base R boxplot?
To display the star for significance in a base R boxplot, we can use text function. The text function will be helpful in defining the star sign (that is asterisk or *). If the significance is high then three stars are used and the significance is low then a single star is used. We need to use the appropriate position using x and y values.
Example
Consider the below data frame −
x<−sample(1:3,20,replace=TRUE) y<−c(rpois(10,10),rpois(10,2)) df<−data.frame(x,y) df
Output
x y 1 1 7 2 3 13 3 1 11 4 1 8 5 2 8 6 2 12 7 2 9 8 1 10 9 1 7 10 3 9 11 1 2 12 3 0 13 3 1 14 2 1 15 3 2 16 3 3 17 2 2 18 2 1 19 2 4 20 2 2
Creating the boxplot of y for categories in x −
Example
boxplot(y~x)
Output
Adding star to category 1 in the above plot −
Example
text(x=1,y=max(df$y[df$x==1]),"***",pos=3,cex=1.5)
Output
