Difference between mean and median

 

 

Describe and contrast mean, median, and mode. What is the difference between mean and median? Which is more sensitive to large outliers? When would
you rather use median than mean when reporting on disease prevalence?
How might a study use report findings to its advantage by utilizing mean, median, and mode? Can you list an example of a type of result where one might
prefer to use median or mode, instead of the more commonly used “mean” (often interchanged with “average”)?
