What is the least resistant to outliers mean median or mode?
The mean is the least resistant to outliers because it is influenced by every value in the dataset, including extreme values. In contrast, the median, which represents the middle value, is less affected by outliers, as it depends only on the order of the data. The mode, being the most frequently occurring value, is also generally unaffected by outliers. Thus, in terms of sensitivity to extreme values, the mean is the most vulnerable.
What does the whisker in a box-and-whisker plot represent?
The whiskers mark the ends of the range of figures - they are the furthest outliers. * * * * * No. Outliers are not part of a box and whiskers plot. The whiskers mark the ends of the minimum and maximum observations EXCLUDING outliers. Outliers, if any, are marked with an X.
What are the uses for median?
Helps you accurately measure the results of a population. It's simply the middle number in a data set, so half of the population is above and half of it is below. It is better than the mean since it is resistant to outliers.
Can you safely remove outliers from scatter charts?
You can only do it if either the outliers are way out - so far that they must be odd, so far that there can be no argument, no need for statistics to prove them to be outliers, or you need to prove that they are outliers using statistics - something like Grubb's test. To do that, the simplest way is software.
Can outliers affect the symmetry of the data?
an outliers can affect the symmetry of the data because u can still move around it
Is correlation a resistant measure?
i think correlatioin is a nonresistant measure because if you take out outliers than only the data that's close together is there...this will increase the correlation closer to -1 or 1, depending on the slope
Is the correlation coefficient resistant?
No, it is not resistant to changes in data.
In general the median of a data set is more resistant to outliers than the mean.?
Yes, it is.
Is the correlation coefficient r a resistant measure of association?
no
What are the three ways to describe data in a scatter plot?
You can describe if there's any obvious correlation (like a positive or negative correlation), apparent outliers, and the corrlation coefficient, which is the "r" on your calculator when you do a regression model. The closer "r" is to either -1 or 1, the stronger that correlation is.
Which descriptive summary measures are considered to be resistant statistics?
Median is a good example of a resistant statistic. It "resists" the pull of outliers. The mean, on the other hand, can change drastically in the presence of an outlier.The interquartile range is a resistant measure of spread.
Is correlation resistant or nonresistant to outliers?
correlation is drawn from all data points. if you look at the r^2 value and it's below 0.99 for example (should be higher in non research work (and in much research work) it indicates that 1 of your points may be an outlier. If you input all datapoints into excel, you may be able to see the point that's throwing it off. There are also statistical tests you can do to spot an outlier. In other words, correlation is not independent of an outlier. it will make the r^2 value worse. If the outlier is taken out, then the correlation could be deemed independent but only because you manipulated it and had taken the outlier out
What are the limits on outliers?
there are no limits to outliers there are no limits to outliers
