SPINEPLOT: Stata module for spine plots for two-way categorical data

Statistical Software Components from Boston College Department of Economics

Abstract: spineplot produces a spine plot for two-way categorical data. The fractional breakdown of the categories of the y variable is shown for each category of the x variable. Stacked bars are drawn with vertical extent showing fraction of y given x and horizontal extent showing fraction of x. Thus the areas of tiles formed represent the frequencies in each cross-combination of y and x. The help file provides several references, including some apparently novel re-discoveries of early examples.
