heavy tailed distribution

[kiddo]

Is there a code/ procedure in SAS where I can model data wherein the dependent variable appears to have a heavy/ right tail? (BTW, I need a procedure with class statement)

If not in SAS, what other possible programs can I do that kind of model?

Thank you

You can try proc glm first, and check the graphs to see if the model assumptions are satisfied. If the data are too extreme, yuo can consider transforming the data before regression.

Hope this helps.
