The median is least affected by an extreme outlier. Mean and standard deviation ARE affected by extreme outliers.
Mean 0, standard deviation 1.
Mean = 0 Standard Deviation = 1
Standard error of the mean (SEM) and standard deviation of the mean is the same thing. However, standard deviation is not the same as the SEM. To obtain SEM from the standard deviation, divide the standard deviation by the square root of the sample size.
Mean and standard deviation are not related in any way.

The mean is affected the most by an outlier.
Common method is to find the mean and the standard deviation of the data set and then call anything that falls more than three standard deviations away from the mean an outlier. That is, x is an outlier if abs(x - mean) --------------- > 3 std dev This is usually called a z-test in statistics books, and the ratio abs(x-mean)/(std dev) is abbreviated z.

Information is not sufficient to find mean deviation and standard deviation.
mean
Standard deviation is a measure of the scatter or dispersion of the data. Two sets of data can have the same mean, but different standard deviations. The dataset with the higher standard deviation will generally have values that are more scattered. We generally look at the standard deviation in relation to the mean. If the standard deviation is much smaller than the mean, we may consider that the data has low dipersion. If the standard deviation is much higher than the mean, it may indicate the dataset has high dispersion A second cause is an outlier, a value that is very different from the data. Sometimes it is a mistake. I will give you an example. Suppose I am measuring people's height, and I record all data in meters, except on height which I record in millimeters- 1000 times higher. This may cause an erroneous mean and standard deviation to be calculated.

Yes.Yes.Yes.Yes.

Standard deviation can be greater than the mean.
