outlier.test: Bonferroni Outlier Test

Description

Reports the Bonferroni p-value for the most extreme observation. At present, there are methods for studentized residuals in linear and generalized linear models.

Usage

outlier.test(model, ...)

outlier.test.lm(model, labels=names(rstud))

outlier.test.glm(model, labels=names(rstud))

Arguments

model
a suitable model object.
labels
an optional vector of observation names.
...
not for the user.

Value

  • an object of class outlier.test, which is normally just printed.

alisas

outlier.test.glm

Details

For a linear model, the p-value reported is for the largest absolute studentized residual, using the $t$ distribution with degrees of freedom one less than the residual df for the model. For a generalized linear model, the largest absolute studentized residual is also used, but with the standard-normal distribution. The Bonferroni adjustment multiplies the usual two-sided p-value by the number of observations.
