Make sure the Patterns are clear…I’ve chosen black & white (avoid relying on colours alone)
Look in Fill Effects for cross hatchings

Copy & paste your histogram into your article…make it BIG (between ½ page and a whole page)
![Page 26: C81MPR How to produce a histogram in APA style for your practical with Excel Jasper Robinson – April 2007](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062318/5515d16e550346dd6f8b464b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Give your histogram a sensible “Figure Legend”…e.g…
Figure 1. Mean percentage recalled from test in Experiment 1. Error bars indicate one standard error of the mean. See Procedure for full details.
