In your example, the mean difference between the NI and PS groups are not sig diff. Similarly, the mean difference between the NI-LS groups and the LS-PS groups are not sig different. The other pairwise comparison of means are significantly different from each other.</P> Fri, 29 Apr 2016 14:46:07 GMT Rick_SAS 2016-04-29T14:46:07Z how to interpret my graph? https://communities.sas.com/t5/Graphics-Programming/how-to-interpret-my-graph/m-p/267241#M9581 <P>Hi,</P><P>I used PROC GLM for ANOVA.</P><P> </P><PRE>ods html style=statistical; ods graphics on; title "Anova with Plots"; PROC GLM DATA = smoke3 order=data;; CLASS amt; MODEL fef=amt/solution; CONTRAST 'ns vs ps' amt 1 -1 0 0 0 0; CONTRAST 'ns vs ave inhale' amt 1 0 0 -.1 -.7 -.2; CONTRAST '# of smo' amt 0 0 0 -14 -4 18; CONTRAST 'ps vs ms' amt 0 -1 0 0 1 0; ESTIMATE 'ns vs ave inh' amt 1 0 0 -.1 -.7 -.2; ESTIMATE 'smo mn' intercept 70 amt 0 0 0 10 20 40 / divisor = 70; ESTIMATE 'nonsmo mn vs smo mn' amt 35 35 0 -10 -20 -40 / divisor = 70; ESTIMATE 'ps vs ms' intercept 70 amt 0 30 0 0 40 0 / divisor =70 ; lsmeans amt/pdiff adjust=tukey;; run; quit; ods graphics off; ods html close;</PRE><P>And i got following result:</P><P><IMG src="https://communities.sas.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/2971iDD8E6854E87F52CA/image-size/original?v=mpbl-1&px=-1" border="0" alt="DiffPlot.png" title="DiffPlot.png" /></P><P> </P><P>Question: how to interpret my graph?</P><P>Thank you</P> Fri, 29 Apr 2016 14:24:31 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/Graphics-Programming/how-to-interpret-my-graph/m-p/267241#M9581 bigban777 2016-04-29T14:24:31Z Re: how to interpret my graph? https://communities.sas.com/t5/Graphics-Programming/how-to-interpret-my-graph/m-p/267251#M9582 <P>See p. 3 of <A href="http://www.mwsug.org/proceedings/2011/dataviz/MWSUG-2011-DG08.pdf" target="_self">"Interpreting the Differences Among LSMEANS in Generalized Linear Models"</A> by Robin High. </P> <P> </P> <P>Briefly, the blue lines represent pairs of groups whose mean differences are significantly different from zero.
