Usage

winsorZ_find(x, zbound = 3)

Value

Output logical variable of Z-score outliers

Arguments

x

The input variable to check for Z-score outliers.

zbound

The Z-score cutoff (default=3, i.e. outliers are Z>3 | Z<-3).

if (FALSE) {
psydat %>% mutate_at(c("iq", "anxT"), list(out = ~ winsorZ_find(.)))
}
