Chapter 5 Foundations: General strategies

Dunno if this goes before or after all the specific examples

• think about task
  • what do people actually need from the representation to do the task? densities? intervals? (arbitrary or known in advance?) point estimates?
• employ frequency framing where possible
  • (maybe a table here translating common non-frequency representations into frequency representations)
  • quantile dotplots
  • representative sampling in scatterplots (need a better name for this)
  • spaghettis
  • pixelated maps (also needs a name)
• use animation / HOPs
• anticipate deterministic construal errors
  • think about task context, common elements of that context with plausibly similar abstract representations
  • when animating / using metaphor, think about the mechanism - do we think of it as random?
