Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Platykurtic and leptokurtic curves refer to the shape of the distribution in terms of its kurtosis, which is a measure of the "tailedness" of the probability distribution of a real-valued random variable. Platykurtic curves have lower kurtosis than the normal distribution (flatter tails), while leptokurtic curves have higher kurtosis (heavier tails).
