Rafael Henkin and Cagatay Turkay presented their paper on the terms used to describe correlation in scatter plots, and the scatter plots people select in association with particular terms. at IEEE VIS in New Orleans.
‘Words of Estimative Correlation: Studying Verbalizations of Scatterplots’ is a really nice extension of some of the ideas about the terms that people use to describe probabilities:
highly likely, probable, good chance, likely
The paper is published in IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics with a pre-print available on arXiv.
