How skewness help in determining relation between different measures of central tendency?
Negative skewness means the average (mean) will be less than the median. Positive skewness means the opposite. I'm not sure if any rule holds for the mode.
If coefficient of skewness equals 0 then what would you say about the skewness of the distribution?
if coefficient of skewness is zero then distribution is symmetric or zero skewed.
What is the difference between Dispersion and Skewness?
distinguish between dispersion and skewness
What is skewness how would you find it in a non symmetrical distribution?
Skewness is a measure of the extent to which the probability distribution of a random variable lies more to one side of the mean, as opposed to it being exactly symmetrical.If μ and s are the mean and standard deviation of a random variable X, thenSkew(X) = Expected value of [(X - μ)/s]3
The use of Pearson Coefficient of Skewness?
Ah, the Pearson Coefficient of Skewness, fancy term for measuring the asymmetry of a probability distribution. It tells you if your data is skewed to the left, right, or if it's all hunky-dory symmetrical. Just plug in your numbers, crunch some math, and voila, you'll know how wonky your data is. Just remember, skewness doesn't lie, so embrace those skewed curves!
