scatter diagram
Points showing relationship
A scatter diagram is a graph showing the relationship between two variables, with data points plotted as dots on x and y axes.
The pattern of dots reveals whether variables correlate—clustered along a line suggests strong relationship, while random dispersal suggests none.
Also called scatter plot or scattergram.
The scatter diagram showed a clear link between study time and test scores.
