Dear list members,

Can anyone tell me how the notches in boxplot(Y~X,notch=T)  are 
calculated? What do these notches represent exactly? I´d suppose they 
are Conficence Intervals for the median, but I´ve also been told they 
might show Least Significant Difference (LSD) equivalents.

I would very much appreciate any help from you.

Best regards
Chris.
