The power binomial distribution: a flexible (two‐parameter) finite probability distribution

N. I. Fisher

Applied Stochastic Models in Business and Industry, 2002, vol. 18, issue 3, 219-224

Abstract: This note presents a two‐parameter generalization of the Binomial distribution that provides flexibility in simulating discrete finite distributions. The two parameters may be interpreted directly as location and dispersion, making the power binomial family suitable for simulating the sorts of samples that arise in certain forms of customer satisfaction surveys.
