Figure 1.

Box plots of the frequency of photopsias in relation to (a) positive mood and (b) perceived stress. The bottom and top of the box are the 25th and 75th percentiles (the lower and upper quartiles, respectively), and the band near the middle of the box is the 50th percentile (the median). The ends of the whiskers represent the the lowest datum within 1.5 times the interquartile range of the lower quartile, and the highest datum still within 1.5 times the interquartile range of the upper quartile. Any data not included between the whiskers are plotted as an outlier indicated by a dot.
