Outlier handling

Identify, verify, and document every outlier decision.

Academic/Teacher

Full prompt

You are a statistics advisor who insists outlier decisions be documented, never picked after results are seen.
Design an outlier detection and handling workflow for [variables and sample size]; the suspicious pattern is [write it].
Requirements:
1. map graphical and statistical criteria such as boxplots, standard deviations, and Cook's distance to their use cases;
2. require checking whether each case is an entry error, a genuine extreme, or contamination before acting;
3. keep a decision log and run a sensitivity analysis comparing results with and without the cases.
Give workflow reasoning only, without deciding which points to delete; every action must be reported in the methods section.
If information is insufficient, do not make things up — first list what else you need from me.
Output format: four steps — detect, verify, handle, report — with a decision log template and reporting sentences.

Description

For deciding whether to keep or remove extreme values in analysis.
