Nontabular Material

Chapter:
Visual Presentation of Data
Author(s):

Stacy Christiansen

Nontabular material does not contain cells of individual data. Usually it is set off from the text by a box, rules, shading, or other elements. Sometimes the box or sidebar is cited in the text (following the citation rules for tables) and other times (eg, in news articles) it is not. Any references that appear in nontabular material should also appear in the reference list and be numbered in order of their appearance (see 4.1.3, Table Components).
