There are multiple repeats of many values so an un-jittered dot plot superimposes many of its crosses and does not show the distribution of values.
A jittered dot plot separates out the crosses reasonably. However a stacked dot plot is best and, since there is a stack of crosses for each individual value, there is no information lost by 'grouping into classes'.
The data set shows scores from 106 volunteers on a 'motivation scale'. The subjects were presented with 37 situations and could choose one of two possible actions in response to each situation. One of these satisfied short-term gains and the other was a more morally ‘right’ action. The score for each subject is the number of morally right actions chosen (a count between 0 and 37).
