2.5 The Five-Number Summary and Boxple APPLY YOUR KNOWLEDGE 2.6 Shared Pain and Bonding. Although painful experiences ar e involved in social rituals in many parts of the world, little is known about the social e of pain. Will sha ing of group members than sharing a similar non-painful experience four university students in South Wales were divided at random into group containing 27 students, with the remaining students in t group. their hands in freezing water for as long as possible, moving metal balls at the bottom of the vessel into a submerged container; in the second ta performed a standing wall squat with back straight and knees at 90 degrees t as long as possible. The n ring painful experiences in a small group lead to greater bond Fifty a pain he no-pain Pain was induced by two tasks. In the first task, students submerged sk, students o-pain group completed the first task using room perature water for 90 seconds and the second task by balancing on one foot for 60 seconds, changing feet if necessary. In both the pain and no-pa settings, the students completed the tasks in small groups, which typically con sisted of four students and contained similar levels of group interaction. After ward, each student completed a questionnaire to create a bonding score on answers to questions such as "I feel the participants in this study in common," or "I feel I can trust the other participants. Here a ing scores for the two groups."

It doesn't matter if your boxplots are horizontal or vertical, but hey should be drawn on the same set of axes (c) Which group tends to have higher bonding scores? Is the variability in the two groups similar, or does one of the groups tend to have less variable bonding scores? Does either group contain one or outliers? more clear
