The relation between the mean difference and the mean deviation in 11 continuous distribution models

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to examine the relations between the mean difference and the mean deviation with reference to the main continuous distribution models. At present, the analytical expressions of the mean difference, in a more or less compact form, have been developed for almost all the continuous distribution models. The numerical calculation of the mean difference is, instead, always possible for any distribution model. The distribution models without the shape parameters, those with only one shape par… Show more

“…The purpose of this work is to increase the methodological contributions on the mean difference and on the relationships of the mean difference with other variability indexes [1] [2]. The studies on the mean difference, introduced by Corrado Gini in 1912 as a measure of the variability of the characters according to the aspect of inequality, have aroused the interest of many scholars over years and also recently [3] [4].…”
