When a distribution is skewed to the right, this means there is a
a. Positive skew
b. Negative skew
c. No skew
d. Multi-skewed
Option A is correct as in the case of the positive skewness the distribution is skewed right and in case of the negative skewness the distribution is skewed left.
As the skewness is defined as the degree of distortion from the set symmetrical bell curve or we can say that the from the normal distribution.

(a) What does it mean to have a skewed distribution? (2) What causes a skew in statistical terms? (3) And how does one deal with skewed data when conducting research? (4)Are there specific types of research questions and types of data where one would expect the data to be skewed? Give specific examples.

2. Sketch three histograms. One each that demonstrates a skewed-left distribution, a skewed-right distribution, and a bell-shaped distribution. For each one, state the relationship between the mean, median, and mode. Explain your reasoning
Which is NOT a property of a normal distribution? A - Discrete X variables B - Symmetrical distribution C - Bell-shaped distribution D -Approximately 68% of the scores fall between + and -1 standard deviation from the mean If the mean of a distribution is 84, the mode is 52 and the median is 58, the distribution is: A Positively skewed B Negatively skewed C Symmetric D Cannot tell from this information A few people do very poorly on a...
