3 Types Of Kurtosis. It is said to be mesokurtic. Bell-shaped curve symmetric about the mean.
More values in the distribution tails and more values close to the mean ie. If a random variables kurtosis is greater than 3 it is said to be Leptokurtic. There are three types of kurtosis which is a description of the peakedness.
More values in the distribution tails and more values close to the mean ie.
All measures of kurtosis are compared against a standard normal distribution or bell curve. Of the probability distribution curve relative to the bell curve of a normal distribution. A platykurtic distribution has extremely dispersed points along the X-axis resulting to a lower peak when. It indicates the extent to which the values of the variable fall above or below the mean and manifests itself as a fat tail.
