## General Advance-Placement (AP) Statistics Curriculum - Johnson SB Distribution

### Johnson SB Distribution

The Johnson SB distribution is related to the normal distribution. Four parameters are needed: Γ, δ, λ, ε . It is a continuous distribution defined on bounded range $\epsilon \leq x \leq \epsilon + \lambda$, and the distribution can be symmetric or asymmetric.

PDF:
$f(x) = \tfrac{\delta}{\lambda\sqrt{2\pi} z(1-z)} exp(-\tfrac{1}{2}(\gamma + \delta ln(\tfrac{z}{1-z}))^2)$, where $z \equiv \tfrac{x-\zeta}{\lambda}$

CDF:
$F(x) = \Phi(\gamma + \delta ln \tfrac{z}{1-z})$, where $z = \tfrac{x-\epsilon}{\lambda}$

Moments:
Moments for this distribution do not have a simple expression.
