Abstract Outliers in sample data are a perennial problem for applied survey statisticians. Moreover, it is a problem for which traditional sample survey theory offers no real solution, beyond the sensible advice that such sample elements should not be weighted to their fullest extent in estimation. Sample outliers can be identified as of two basic types. Here we are concerned with the first type, which may conveniently be termed representative outliers. These are sample elements with values that have been correctly recorded and that cannot be assumed to be unique. That is, there is no good reason to assume there are no more similar outliers in the nonsampled part of the target population. The remaining sample outliers, which by default are termed nonrepresentative, are sample elements whose data values are incorrect or unique in some sense. Methods for dealing with these nonrepresentative outliers lie basically within the scope of survey editing and imputation theory and are, therefore, not considered in ...
