A measure that is not influenced by outliers. Median and IQR are examples of resistant measures.
Median is the middle of the ordered list.
IQR, which stands for inter quartile range, is the difference between the first quartile and third quartiles.
The mean is called a non-resistant measure in statistics.
no
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.
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
No, it is not resistant to changes in data.
