Unbiased skewness

edit

In the article, the following was stated: "In general, the ratios   and   are both biased estimators of the population skewness  ; their expected values can even have the opposite sign from the true skewness."

However, the   and   are both unbiased rather than biased! See e.g. SciPy source code: https://github.com/scipy/scipy/blob/v1.1.0/scipy/stats/stats.py#L1002-L1074 --17 kutalmis bercin (talk) 16:15, 6 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

HOW ABOUT A POSITIVE SKEW VERSES NEGATIVE SKEW PICTURE —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Justcop4 (talkcontribs) .

Early comments

edit

The statement about unbiasedness of the estimate of skewness given needs further qualification for two reasons.

Firstly, if the sample is from a finite population, the observations are dependent, while the proof of unbiasedness requires independence.

Secondly, the standardised third moment is a ratio. It is usually impossible that the expectation of a ratio can be written in a simple form that generalises to all distributions. In fact the estimator for the central third moment in the numerator is unbiased, and the variance in the denominator is unbiased (but its 3/2 power is biased). [It is well known that the square root of the sample variance--the sample standard deviation--is biased; there is a correction for bias for specific distributions, but no general correction.] By the linearisation method (or delta method) we can say that the ratio is approximately unbiased. User:Terry Moore 11 Jun 2005


Adding two graphs here to illustrate visually the difference between left and right skew would be enormously beneficial. I got them confused until someone drew it on the board in stats class.

In addition to the article being unclear to a layperson, many of us are concerned with interpreting our data than the beauty of the underlying method, though agreeably, a basic understanding of the methodology and assumptions enables one to use the appropriate tool effectively. In this case, a quick guide to the interpretation of the resultant statistic is important. How does a skewness of 1 compare to a skewness of 0.5 or -1 etc.? Perhaps that could be covered in the graph if not in the text.216.129.143.26 20:30, 24 June 2006 (UTC) GaryGReply

Missing assumption?

edit

I think the following paragraph cannot hold under general conditions:

Skewness affects Mean the most and Mode the least. For a positivevely skewed distribution, Mean > Median > Mode and for a negatively skewed distribution, Mean < Median < Mode

One can always add a narrow "peak" to the density function, so that the skewness is not altered significantly but the mode is. Perhaps something with unimodality of the distribution? Or is it to be taken just as a rule of thumb? 88.101.32.104 11:56, 23 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

An objective introduction should not include apparently biased references to the inferior quality of unspecified textbooks, especially when the author has not specified the overall textbook population to which the textbooks are being compared. Surely, not ALL textbook discussions of the median are inferior to the introduction presented by the smug author. The author should justify the comments about textbooks, including a justification of the value of the textbook comments themselves! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.240.104.100 (talk) 14:55, 13 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Positive versus negative skewness mixed up

edit

When looking at the skewness for the Maxwell-Boltzmann-distribution it appeared to me that the definitions of positive and negative skewness got mixed up. The Maxwell-Boltzmann-distribution has a negative skewness, but according to the current definition, it should have a longer left tail, which clearly is not the case. I checked Mathworld for their definition, and this one seems to contradict the definition of Wikipedia. Even if I am mistaken, this definition should be clarified and a picture would definitily help. -- Pspijker 22:31 September 1st, 2006

What makes you think the Maxwell-Boltzmann-distribution has a negative skewness? --Henrygb 23:35, 16 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
According to the Wikipedia entry for the Maxwell-Boltzmann-distribution the skewness is defined as: 2*sqrt(2)*(5*pi-16)/((3*pi-8)^(3.0/2.0)), which is approximately -0.485692828, clearly negative. The similar definition is supported by Mathworld. When defining the skewness Mathworld says "Skewness is a measure of the degree of asymmetry of a distribution. If the left tail (tail at small end of the distribution) is more pronounced that the right tail (tail at the large end of the distribution), the function is said to have negative skewness. If the reverse is true, it has positive skewness. If the two are equal, it has zero skewness." The difficulty lies within the word pronounced. This Wikipedia entry speaks about "a distribution has positive skew (right-skewed) if the right (higher value) tail is longer and negative skew (left-skewed) if the left (lower value) tail is longer". To my opinion skewness has nothing to do with the size of either tail, but more with the 'weight' associated with the tail. A reformulation of the definition on Wikipedia would help a lot. --Pspijker 08:00, 26 September 2006 (CEST)
I'm pretty sure the problem is with the formula for skewness in Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution. I just simulated ten million samples from it (by simulating three component velocities from a normal distribution and calculating speed from them) and while the mean and the variance match the formulae given in the article, the skewness came out at +0.484. I think the source of the error was most likely the MathWorld article on the M-B distribution. I should probably go through the algebra to derive the skewness from the raw moments before I change the M-B dist article, but i'll remove the {{expert subject}} tag from this article now (I'm originally a physicist so i consider this sort of experimental mathematics proof to be perfectly adequate for all practical purposes, but it's still somehow satisfying to check the algebra even though when the two disagree it's nearly always my algebra that's at fault).

The incorrect sign (now corrected) can be confirmed algebraically by starting from the result for the chi distribution. Melcombe (talk) 16:13, 25 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

incorrect formula for G1

edit

The formula for G1 is incorrect. The coefficient on the g1 term should be inverted. See Zar, Biostatistical Analysis, 4th ed., p. 71, 6.9, where G1 is Zar's sqrt(b1). Using the k-statistic results of Stuart and Ord, p.422, 12.29, which present k-statistics in terms of the sample moments m2 and m3, you can do the algebra, getting g1 in terms of the ratio of k-statistics, and see that Zar is correct. -- J.D. Opdyke

I am no expert on this but MathWorld gives a different formula for k3 and k2, both involving the sample mean. They also allege an unbiased estimator for finite populations using a different regularization factor. Could somebody please reconcile the two? --Yecril (talk) 08:05, 24 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

The Distribution of Skewness and testing

edit

A rough estimate of the "standard error of Skewness" (SES) for a normal distribution is sqrt(6/N), as seen on a few places out in the web: http://www.jalt.org/test/bro_1.htm and http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Skewness.html . http://www.xycoon.com/skewness_small_sample_test_1.htm has a small-N formula for the standard error of skewness, and says the distribution of skewness/SES ~ N(0,1).

Nice to know a rank outsider can help a bit. Actually the article has a more fundamental problem. Apparently it's written by insiders for insiders, thus is full of mathematical rigor and no understanding for outsiders. That's why Daniel above didn't catch on to the fact that skew is denominated in terms of standard deviation; he probably doesn't have a grasp on that topic either and there's no use sending him to a similarly rigorous and opaque article. If I didn't have a slight acquaintace with the topic, this article would be completely mysterious. The only layman explanation I see in Wikipedia for why skewed distributions are important is in Lake Woebegone effect where it's only a side point. Where that explanation belongs, and a broader discussion of the significance of skew, with examples such as why most people are poorer than average but have more than the average number of legs, is in this article.

Example of a right-skewed distribution where the mean is left of the median

edit

Someone should provide an example where the mean is not to the right of the median of a right-skewed distribution (a picture would be best). Since the article has a paragraph devoted to discussing the misconception regarding mean and skewness, there should be an example. Relatedly, the term "mass of a distribution" is used in this article when there is no explanation what that is. The reason I say that is because it is vital to understanding of mean and skewness. 71.64.105.56 (talk) 23:47, 25 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

edit

The sentence "If there is zero skewness (i.e., the distribution is symmetric) then the mean = median. (If, in addition, the distribution is unimodal, then the mean = median = mode.)" is wrong in the same way that the subsequent paragraph beginning "many textbooks" is describing a common misunderstanding.

Specifically, if you define skewness in terms of third moment, mean doesn't necessarily equal median when the third moment is zero.

e.g. consider a r.v. taking the value -4 with probability 1/3, 1 with probability 1/2, and 5 with probability 1/6 (you could write the numbers on a die - -4 on two faces, 1 on three and 5 on the last face). The mean is 0, the third central moment is 0, but the median is 1. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.171.86.193 (talk) 00:26, 2 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Regarding the attempt to correct the statement "...then the mean = median = mode. This is the case of a coin toss or the series 1,2,3,4,..." This seems incorrect for the 1,2,3,4,... example series, if by that you/we mean a uniform PMF over some set of natural numbers. A bounded uniform PMF has as many modes as it has possible values or bins. So the mode of the sequence 1,2,3,4,5 is the set 1,2,3,4,5. The median is 3. The mean is 3. So, mean = median ≠ mode. For the one-side-bounded uniform PMF, (e.g. a uniform PMF over the set 1,2,3,4,...,inf) the number of modes is infinite, but the values of the modes aren't all infinite,. However for this bounded-on-one-side uniform distribution, the mean and median go to positive infinity, in the limit (I think). So, again, mean = median ≠ mode.

What the heck does "gravitropic response of wheat coleoptiles" have to do with skewness?

edit

I understand that the graph demonstrates skewness, but most people don't know what the words "gravitropic" or "coleoptiles" mean, so the graph provides no additional understanding of the meaning of skewness. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.32.245.85 (talk) 05:57, 31 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Yea, but the shape of the distribution did help me visualize skewness. It might be better to replace the bio-science jargon in the caption with something like: "the tendency of wheat grass to respond to the force of gravity and grow upward" Someone reading up on skewness doesn't likely care if it's the protective sheath around the grass (coleoptiles) or the grass itself that's doing the growing upward away from gravity. The point is the plant responds to gravity in a nonlinear way (from what I can gather from the plot alone and no units or legend). A less jargonny caption would be less distracting from the core point (the shape of the distribution). Hobsonlane (talk) 21:00, 23 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

Comment on introduction

edit

An editor recently made some modifications to the introduction which were later reverted by another editor (for different reasons than I am discussing here). The original changes attempted to be more mathematically specific and technically accurate. I would encourage editors, however, to remember that Wikipedia is, in theory, designed to be accessible to everyone. There is nothing inherently wrong with presenting qualitative descriptions that, while incomplete, give the reader a general picture of the concept without getting lost in the details (provided that the description is qualified as being "qualitative", "over-simplified", or in some other way incomplete). In particular, the introduction should attempt to be as accessible as possible to the widest audience. We can get into the technicalities later in the article (technicalities that may be over the heads of some readers).

Skew askew?

edit

The Wikipedia article on Skewness cites reference #14 (in Czech) concerning Cyhelsky's Skewness Coefficient. However, the formulation [(the number of observations below the mean minus the number of observations above the mean)/total number of observations] yields a negative value for a right-sided skew, which is commonly described as "positive" skewness. I don't read Czech. Perhaps someone who does read Czech could "check" to see whether the Wikipedia formulation should be revised to result in a negative coefficient when the data show a left-sided skew.

Skewer askew

edit

Concerning my "Skew askew" post and quoting Professor Rosanne - "Never mind." Data that skew to the right-side tail do have more values below the mean than above, and the Wikipedia expression for the Cyhilsky coefficient does yield a positive value. Thinners (talk) 00:10, 28 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

"Applications"

edit

I just read the article and was slightly perturbed by the "Applications" section. The skewness is a mathematical measure of a probability distribution and hence has no application as such. The fact that some stochastic models make assumptions about zero skewness and may not be useful to model processes that exhibit non-zero skewness does not mean that skewness is "useful" or is being "applied".

I thus suggest changing the headline of this section and re-write it or delete it altogether. I'd personally just delete it. However, if the consensus is that the real world importance of skewed distributions is important and should be discussed, maybe the introduction would be a good place to write a sentence about it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.174.140.104 (talk) 22:11, 7 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

sample variance in g1 formula

Yes. See the different formulae for g1 and G1. Early workers in skewness used the g1 form and this has carried through into some later works. It is therefore impirtant to know what definition of sample skewness is being used, particularly for small samples. Melcombe (talk) 13:02, 16 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

/* Definition */

edit

Recently someone edited the formula for G1 and "corrected" the last term in the numerator. That "correction" was undone soon after, and the dance was repeated once more.

Just to make sure I am not mistaken: here's the full history for someone to double check. Previously (before July) we had for the numerator of gamma_1: E[X^3] - 3\mu\sigma^2 - \mu^3 which was changed to E[X^3] - 3\mu\sigma^2 + 2\mu^3 which I have now reverted to E[X^3] - 3\mu\sigma^2 - \mu^3

The reason should be obvious from the definition as the centralized moment. Please correct me if I'm wrong! (The previous edit(s) may have originated from some confusion between non-centralized and centralized moments as the numerator can also be written as E[X^3] - 3\mu E[X^2] + 2\mu^3 and is in fact how it is written on MathWorld). We may have to watch this formula for changes again to avoid an edit war. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.174.140.104 (talk) 23:31, 1 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Positive and negative skew is something that is hard to remember -- does anyone know some helps to remind here?

Pearson's first skewness

edit

The "3" in this coefficient is simply wrong. The article here gives the impression there's a distinction between "mode skewness" and Pearson's first skewness coefficient. There simply isn't. The "3" in the *second* Pearson skewness coefficient arises because Pearson noticed (in his 1895 paper [1] ) that often the median lay about 1/3 of the way from the mean to the mode (and so median-skewness should be multiplied by 3 to make it like the mode-skewness).

The MathWorld reference for this appears to simply be wrong. The "3" in relation to skewness involving the mode is not part of Pearson's work as far as I can see.

Possible Error on Page Pertaining to Sequences which Seem To Have Negative Skew

edit

The page states: "We can transform this sequence into a negatively skewed distribution by adding a value far below the mean, e.g. (40, 49, 50, 51). Similarly, we can make the sequence positively skewed by adding a value far above the mean, e.g. (49, 50, 51, 60)."

Am I correct in stating that, in both cases, the sequence of numbers given is right-leaning? Of course, this might not necessarily imply that the information given is incorrect (though I think that a calculation of the skewness would have to be given in order to justify the assertions made). There is a possibility that the quoted comment is a mistake and that, in fact, both sequences have negative skew (as, indeed, they appear to using the inuitive notions introduced in the "Introduction" section).

Introduction Of Ideas Pertaining to the Mean's Relevance In Determining Skewness

edit

On second thoughts, it does seem as if the quoted remarks are making assertions about the importance of the mean (and so the quoted remarks MAY be correct in some sense). However, this is a little confusing because the "Introduction" correlates the idea of negative skewness with right-leaning distributions (and vice versa) and then goes onto give examples, which are both right-leaning, but with negative and positive skewness, respectively. This would seem to be pedagogically unsound. ASavantDude (talk) 17:05, 3 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Applying the Ideas of the "Relationship of mean and median" section to the "Introduction" section To Resolve Confusion

edit

Having had a chance to read the "Relationship of mean and median" section (which comes after the "Introduction" section), the following observations seem important: 1) The sequence (40, 49, 50, 51) has mean 47.5 and median 49.5, so mean < median, so (by the logic/definition of the "Relationship of mean and median" section), this sequence has NEGATIVE *nonparametric skew*.

2) The sequence (49, 50, 51, 60) has mean 52.5 and median 50.5, so mean > median, so this sequence has POSITIVE *nonparametric skew*.

However, this is clearly confusing in that, when a novice reads the article from beginning to end, they require concepts that are presented 'later', 'earlier on' in the article. Perhaps the "Introduction" section should mention the definition of *Non-parametric skewness*?

It would be good to include some information about those situations where the different definitions of skewness agree with each other, and disagree with each other (including nonparametric skewness). Of course, this might make the article too long due to the number of definitions of skewness presented within the article (there are possibly 9 different definitions of skewness presented within the article, depending upon how you count them).

Perhaps the article could offer a calculation of the "Pearson's method coefficient of skewness" for these sequences, as this provides ONE objective definition of the skewness (though, to be fair, there are several definitions of skewness and applying them all in such a simple example would probably not be wise).

The order in which the ideas are presented in this article can clearly lead to confusion. ASavantDude (talk) 19:49, 3 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Non-negative?

edit

The first example figure shows a distribution with positive skewness, but the caption described it as "non-negative (positive) skewness." This phrasing implies these terms are synonymous, and will likely mislead people unfamiliar with the terminology. Since the distribution clearly has non-zero skew, describing it as non-negative is unspecific, redundant and verbose. I propose the caption be changed to simply state it has positive skewness, and drop the unnecessary "non-negative."
