How likely is 'likely'?
#TidyTuesday, wk 10 is all about discovering the invisible prob scale in our head.
I built radial &🍩charts- 10 H2H matchups where phrases compete on perceived prob. 1 pair was shown twice in reverse, but no anchoring effect in selection was found

A black background with white/gray text with the title "Likelihood of likelihood phrases: As judged by 5000+ people in Kucharski (2026)". The proportional fill of each word corresponds to its median %-likelihood, from "Will Happen" and "Almost Certain" which are completely filled, to "Remote Chance", "Highly Unlikely" And "Almost No Chance" which are all almost completely unfilled. Data: Kucharski (2026); Packages: {tidyverse, marquee}; Visualization: C. Börstell.
Going very minimal for this week's #TidyTuesday looking at judged likelihood of likelihood-expressing phrases in English.

Mirrored bar plot showing the distribution of estimated probabilities for different terms, for US and UK respondents. Will happen is ranked most likely, and almost no chance is least likely. Points highlight the median which are identical for both groups except for may/might happen and highly likely where US medians are higher.
A really fun dataset for this week's #TidyTuesday, looking at how people interpret different probabilistic statements 📊
There's so many aspects of this to visualise, but I decided make some barcode plots comparing how people from the UK and US responded!
#DataViz #RStats #ggplot2
Dot plot showing how people interpret common probability phrases on a 0–100% likelihood scale. Phrases like “Almost No Chance” and “Highly Unlikely” appear near 0%, “About Even” sits around 50%, and phrases such as “Likely,” “Very Good Chance,” and “Highly Likely” cluster above 90%, with “Will Happen” interpreted as essentially certain. Several middle phrases—including “May Happen,” “Might Happen,” and “Could Happen”—are interpreted very similarly, highlighting ambiguity in everyday probability language
How likely is "likely"?
This week's #TidyTuesday explores probability phrases
"Likely" is more likely than "Probable", but "Likely" is less likely than a "Very Good Chance"

A dot-and-segment chart showing 20 Mario game titles ranked by both estimated gross revenue (steel blue dot) and units sold (burgundy dot). Titles are sorted by revenue rank, from best to worst. For most top titles, the two dots sit close together, indicating the metrics agree. Three titles stand out with long burgundy segments extending to the right: Super Mario All-Stars, Super Mario Galaxy 2, and Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island — all ranked much lower in revenue than their unit sales would suggest. Annotations explain that re-releases and budget pricing drove high unit counts without proportional revenue.

If you regularly create plots in R, the tidyplots package is definitely worth exploring.
Today, I released a new module in the Statistics Globe Hub that explains how to use tidyplots in R.

Horizontal interval with dots chart showing the probability ranges assigned by survey respondents to 19 vague probability expressions, from "Almost No Chance" to "Will Happen". For each row shows the 50%, 80%, and 95% intervals of responses alongside the median. Terms at the extremes show more tight agreement while middle terms like "Realistic Possibility" and "Might Happen" show wide variation across respondents.

A horizontal range chart titled "Lost in the Middle" showing how 5,174 respondents assigned numerical probabilities (0–100%) to 19 common probability phrases. Each row displays a phrase ordered from lowest to highest median estimate. The thick bar represents the middle 50% of responses (IQR) and thin lines show the 10th–90th percentile range. Phrases at the extremes — such as "Will Happen" (median 100%), "Almost Certain" (95%), and "Almost No Chance" (2%) — show narrow, tightly clustered bars in gray, indicating strong agreement. In contrast, "Realistic Possibility" (highlighted in deep burgundy, IQR spanning 25–75%) and three semantically similar phrases — "Might Happen," "May Happen," and "Could Happen" (shown in muted rose, all with median 40%) — display wide bars indicating substantial disagreement. "About Even" stands out as a single gray dot with zero spread, the only phrase on which respondents achieved perfect consensus at 50%.

A faceted line chart showing the sex ratio of Hermann's tortoises across three locations (Beach, Konjsko, and Plateau) on Golem Grad island in North Macedonia from 2008 to 2023. The Plateau (right most) panel shows consistently high male bias, peaking around 93 males for every female around 2013 before declining to around 16 by 2023, but remaining heavily male-biased throughout. Beach (left most panel) shows moderate male bias with high variability. Konjsko (middle panel) mostly dips below the parity line into female-biased territory, shown by a shaded region. A dark dashed horizontal line marks the 1:1 sex ratio across all panels. The y-axis is on a log10 scale.

![Title: Female tortoises were healthier in places with fewer males
Subtitle: Average body condition of female and male Hermann's tortoises for three locations at Lake Prespa, North Macedonia: Beach (teal), Konjsko (yellow), and Plateau (brown) locations (Summer records only; no 2013 data). A higher score indicates a healthier animal. Circle size shows how many individuals were measured per timepoint. Notably, Plateau males consistently had the most records.
Figure: Two horizontal line plots showing average body condition (y-axis) by year (x-axis), each with three lines corresponding to Beach (teal), Konjsko (yellow), and Plateau (brown) locations. The annual record counts is depicted as a circle overlaid on each line. Female body condition (upper plot) values for Konjsko are consistently higher than those for Beach and Plateau, demonstrated by the yellow line that is above and distinct from the teal and brown lines. Male body condition values for Konjsko lack this trend, demonstrated by the overlap between the lines for the three locations. The record count for males at Plateau are very large across all time points.

A three-panel data visualization titled "Too Many Males, Too Few Females" examines Hermann's tortoise captures from Golem Grad island (Lake Prespa) over 16 years. Panel A shows a line chart of the percentage of female captures on the island from 2008 to 2023, consistently hovering near 5–10% — far below the 50% parity reference line. Panel B displays violin plots comparing the body condition index of mainland versus island females; mainland females (median: 8.1, n=976) show notably higher body condition than island females (median: 6.3, n=268). Panel C presents a dot plot of clutch size by locality; island females average 3 eggs per clutch (n=22) compared to a mainland average of 6 eggs per clutch (n=31). Together, the panels illustrate a cause-to-consequence chain: extreme male bias on the island is associated with poorer female body condition and reduced reproductive output.

This #TidyTuesday looks at Golem Grad Tortoise Data 🐢
On Golem Grad island, tortoises have become increasingly male-biased and females are showing declining body condition and reproductive output compared to the mainland population.

A two-panel horizontal chart showing Trump's approval ratings across 13 demographic groups. The left panel displays the net change in percentage points from Late February 2025 to February 2026, with margin of error bars (±8.6 pp). Groups with statistically significant declines are shown in blue; those within the margin of error — Age 65+, Democrats, Age 50-64, and Republicans — are shown in gray. The largest declines occurred among Age 35-49 and Latino Americans (−19 pp each), followed by Independents (−15 pp, highlighted in orange). The right panel shows February 2026 approval ratings in the same row order, revealing that steep declines do not always correspond to low current approval: Republicans dropped only −8 pp but retain 82% approval, while Independents fell sharply to just 26%. Both panels use the same row ordering — steepest decline at top — enabling direct cross-panel comparison. Source: CNN/SSRS poll, February 17–20, 2026 (n=2,496; MoE ±8.6 pp).
