Thank you, David, however, I am not sure this approach works. Let's try it again - I slightly modifed d to make it more clear:
d=data.frame(xx=c(1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,3,3,3,3),yy=c(3,3,4,4,3,3,4,4,3,3,4,4),zz=c(-1.1,-1.3,0,0.6,-0.5,1,3.3,-1.3,4.4,3.5,5.1,3.5)) d[[1]]<-as.factor(d[[1]]) d[[2]]<-as.factor(d[[2]]) print(d) interaction.plot(d$xx, d$yy, d$zz, fun=mean, type="b", col=c("red","blue"), legend=F, lty=c(1,2), lwd=2, pch=c(18,24), xlab="X Label (level of xx)", ylab="Y Label (level of zz)", main="Chart Label") grid(nx=NA, ny=NULL,col = "lightgray", lty = "dotted", lwd = par("lwd"), equilogs = TRUE) legend("bottomright",c("3","4"),bty="n",lty=c(1,2),lwd=2, pch=c(18,24),col=c("red","blue"),title="Level of yy") The dots on both lines show means on zz for a given combination of factors xx and yy. # If I add this line: with(d, text(xx,zz,paste(zz))) It adds the zz values for ALL data points in d - instead of the means that are shown on the graph... Any advice? Dimitri d=data.frame(xx=c(3,3,3,2,2,2,1,1,1),yy=c(4,3,4,3,4,3,4,3,4),zz=c(5.1,4.4,3.5,3.3,-1.1,-1.3,0,-0.5,0.6)) d[[1]]<-as.factor(d[[1]]) d[[2]]<-as.factor(d[[2]]) print(d) interaction.plot(d$xx, d$yy, d$zz, fun=mean, type="b", col=c("red","blue"), legend=F, lty=c(1,2), lwd=2, pch=c(18,24), xlab="X Label", ylab="Y Label", main="Chart Label") grid(nx=NA, ny=NULL,col = "lightgray", lty = "dotted", lwd = par("lwd"), equilogs = TRUE) legend("bottomright",c("0.25","0.50","0.75"),bty="n",lty=c(1,2,3),lwd=2, pch=c(18,24,22),col=c(PrimaryColors[c(6,4)],SecondaryColors[c(4)]),title="R Squared") On Wed, Mar 4, 2009 at 2:06 PM, David Winsemius <dwinsem...@comcast.net> wrote: > See if this helps.
