Sensitivity is plotted for each participant for each graph type. The brim of the hat corresponds to sensitivity with the bar graphs, and the crown corresponds to sensitivity with the hat graphs. Sensitivity was measured as the slope in linear regressions, and higher values correspond to better sensitivity. A slope of 1 corresponds to perfect sensitivity whereas a slope of 0 indicates no sensitivity. The brims correspond to the bar graph condition whereas the crowns correspond to the hat graph condition. Participants are grouped by design (blocked versus intermixed) then ranked with respect to how much more sensitive they were with the hat graphs compared with the bar graphs
