Hi,

Is it the expected result that two dots are plotted for outliers, one
on the center line and the other as jittered, when we plot with
geom_boxplot() + geom_jitter() ?

p <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(factor(cyl), mpg))
p + geom_boxplot() + geom_jitter()

sort(mtcars[mtcars$cyl==8,'mpg'])
# [1] 10.4 10.4 13.3 14.3 14.7 15.0 15.2 15.2 15.5 15.8 16.4 17.3 18.7
19.2

We can see 3 dots for 10.4 of cyl==8 and 2 dots for 19.2.
(see http://had.co.nz/ggplot2/geom_boxplot.html)

geom_boxplot is outputting the outliers and geom_jitter is outputting the
same points over again.

The points below the box are 10.4 as an outlier (center line) and then 10.4
and 10.4 to the left and right from geom_jitter().

Above the boxplot on cyl==8 you've got the outlier 18.7 on the center line
from geom_boxplot and then 18.7 and 17.3 from geom_jitter().

You can see it easier if you do this.

p <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(factor(cyl), mpg))
p + geom_boxplot() + geom_jitter(outlier.colour="NA")

This erases the outliers from the geom_boxplot output.

HTH,
B

I think you mean:
p <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(factor(cyl), mpg))
p + geom_boxplot(outlier.colour=NA) + geom_jitter()

Yes, should have copy and pasted it from the GUI. =\
