... A common problem when using experimental plot data to estimate insect damage functions is the occurrence of “negative losses.” For example, a field experiment evaluating a new insecticide may find that the average crop yield for the treated plots exceeds the average yield on the untreated control p ...

... The median of a data set is the value in the middle when the data items are arranged in ascending order. Whenever a data set has extreme values, the median is the preferred measure of central location. The median is the measure of location most often reported for annual income and property val ...

... • Standard Deviation is also an average (like the mean) so it is sensitive to outliers • Can think about a similar solution: start trimming away extreme values on either side of the distribution • If we trim away 25% of the data on either side, we are left with the first and third quartiles May 28, ...
