Which is the BEST description of a histogram?

This question falls under Measurement and Analysis , focusing on data visualization techniques. A histogram (Option B) is used to display the distribution of continuous data by grouping values into intervals (bins) and representing their frequency with adjacent bars. CPXP principles emphasize the importance of selecting the appropriate visualization to accurately interpret data patterns and variation. Histograms are especially useful for identifying data distribution, skewness, and variability , which can inform improvement decisions in patient experience metrics. Option A describes a line graph, Option C refers to a bar chart orientation, and Option D describes a pie chart. Unlike bar charts, histogram bars typically touch , indicating continuous data rather than discrete categories. This makes histograms essential for analyzing trends and variation in performance data.
