    • Question

      For discrete distribution, the co-efficient of kurtosis

      β₂ is -
      A Greater than 1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Less than 1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Equal to 1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Less than or equal to 1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The Pearson coefficient β2 is always greater than 1 for discrete distribution. β2 = 3 indicates mesokurtic curve. β2< 3 and β2 > 1 then the curve will be platykurtic but it must be greater than 1 otherwise it will be straight line curve and question of skewness does not arise.
