Do outbound links matter for SEO?

Google cautions SEOs to be mindful about outbound linking.

Mueller said that links help users find out more about a topic and be able to check your sources. He then cautioned about link schemes, links in advertisements and within user-generated content, recommending that they apply the rel=“nofollow” attribute in those cases.

But do outbound links on your own website impact SEO? A recent study conducted by marketing firm Reboot showed a positive correlation between a page's outbound links and its rankings in search results. Reboot hypothesized that Google can determine the authority of a page or website based on the sources it links to.
