The Properties of a Decile-Based Statistic to Measure Symmetry and Asymmetry
This paper studies a simple skewness measure to detect symmetry and asymmetry in samples. The statistic can be obviously applied with only three short central tendencies; i.e., the first and ninth deciles, and the median. The strength of the statistic to find symmetry and asymmetry is studied by emp...
