Line Plot from Scientific Research

The axes denote model scores in terms of percentiles. Grey bars indicate maximum and minimum values from alternative plausible model specifications with varying health metrics, pre-processing methods and aggregation methods. The dashed red line indicates the 75th percentile cutoff score for funding designation. Dots indicate the median predicted amount of model sensitivity at a given percentile, in terms of by how many percentile-ranks a tract can vary. Light shaded portions and error bars indicate 95% prediction intervals. Dark shaded portions indicate 75% prediction intervals (for example, in 95% of predictions, tracts at the 75th percentile can vary their score by 44 percentile-ranks).
