Figure 1

Multidimensional scaling (MDS) and PROFIT analysis output of pile sort data. Points in MDS represent graphs from pile sort. The two primary structural dimensions identified by PROFIT analysis are indicated by solid arrows with dimension labels: “Number in Largest Component” and “Number of Isolates”. Dashed arrows link images of five example graphs and their corresponding points on the MDS. These graphs are also examples from each of the five clusters. Points are labeled with values of the two primary PROFIT dimensions separated by a comma: Number in Largest Component, Number of Isolates.
