2 Click on each word to view its definition. Outlier Median Lower Extreme Upper Extreme Inner Quartile Range Outlier: A data element that lies outside the normal distribution of the data. (IQR - Interquartile Range) There are two types of outliers: 1. Mild Outlier > 1.5*IQR 2. Extreme Outlier > 3*IQR Outlier Lower Extreme (minimum): The lowest value, not counting outliers, in a set of data; part of the five number summary. Lower Extreme Lower Extreme 2

3 (Q 1) = the value of the median of the lower 50% of the data, where 25% of the values are smaller than the lower quartile and 75% are greater than. In other words the lower quartile is the median of the lower 50% of the data. Q 1 = lower quartile = cuts off lowest 25% of data = 25th percentile Median (Q 2 ): the middle value when a set of values are placed in numerical order. If there is an even number of values then the median is the mean of the middle two values (add the two middle terms and divide by two). Med = Q 2 = median = cuts data set in half = 50th percentile Median Median Interquartile Range (IQR): the value of the IQR is the difference of the 3rd and 1st quartile. The IQR contains approximately the middle 50% of the data points. IQR = Q 3 - Q 1 Inner Quartile Range Interquartile Range 3

4 (Q 3 ): the value of the median of the upper 50% of the data, where 25% of the values are greater than the upper quartile and 75% are less than. In other words the upper quartile is the median of the upper 50% of the data. Q 3 = upper quartile = cuts off highest 25% of data, or lowest 75% = 75th percentile Upper Extreme (maximum): The highest value, not counting outliers, in a set of data. Upper Extreme Upper Extreme Collect the Data. Arrange in numerical order. Determine a scale sample P1 4
