De mean plot berekend hier het gemiddelde van elke maand over de verschillende jaren. Hou wel rekening met het feit dat maand 1 hier maart is. Dit cijfer is dus het gemiddelde van maart 2000, maart 2001, 2002 en 2003.
Met behulp hiervan kan je beter vaststellen of er seizoenaliteit is (toevaligge outliers worden immers weggewerkt doordat het gemiddelde over meerdere jaren ward genomen.)

Hier is dus sprake van seizoenaliteit, dat is duidelijk te zien aan maand 7 (september).

Goede interpretatie van de vraagstelling!

Het mean plot berekent inderdaad het periodiek gemiddelde van een bepaalde maand over x aantal jaren (bv gemiddelde maart 2000, 20001,...). We kunnen duidelijk vaststellen dat het gemiddelde van de maand augustus anders is dan het gemiddelde van de maand september, maar aan de hand van deze grafiek kunnen we nog niet spreken van een beduidend verschil. We gaan hier ook kijken naar de grafiek van de notched boxplots. Hier kunnen we een groot verschil bemerken tussen de boxplot van de maand maart en deze van de maanden augustus en september. Hier kunnen we dus wel spreken van een beduidend verschil. Hier is dus sprake van seizoenaliteit.
