Dr. oswald creates a scatterplot of the relationship between the experience of daily stress and life satisfaction. in doing so, she realizes there are three scores that seem to be very extreme and are nowhere near the other points on the scatterplot. specifically, it appears that three people report very high levels of daily stress and very low levels of life satisfaction. dr. oswald should probably consider these scores ___________.

I believe the answer is: These scores are more likely to have an effect because of the large sample size
In asking about satisfaction, the data could only come from the life experiences or personal principle of the individuals in the samples. Because of this, the scores would have relatively same effect regardless of the amount of sample size that the researchers use.
