''Skew distributions to the left''
When the smaller values tend to be farther away from the mean than the larger values, one has a skew distribution to the left (i.e. there is negative skewness), one may for example select the ''square-normal distribution'' (i.e. the normal distribution applied to the square of the data values){{Citation needed|reason=Non-standard term and specific claim; note that the square of a real random variable cannot actually be normal|date=January 2020}}, the inverted (mirrored) Gumbel distribution, the [[Dagum distribution]] (mirrored Burr distribution), or the [[Gompertz distribution]], which is bounded to the left.
