@Bruce: Thanks for the suggestions, I thought about this before as well…but can I just drop some “inconvenient cases”

Many thanks for the help and best wishes,

Hi Stefan.  You'd only be dropping them in order to compare that model to one that includes them.  That's not the same thing as ignoring them completely.  This is in essence what measures like Cook's Distance do, although in that case, it leaves out one observation at a time.

HTH.
