| 11. | Some authors use " kurtosis " by itself to refer to the excess kurtosis.

| 12. | Some authors use " kurtosis " by itself to refer to the excess kurtosis.
|
| 13. | A reason why some authors favor the excess kurtosis is that cumulants are extensive.
|
| 14. | Here the kurtosis is defined to be the standardised fourth moment around the mean.
|
| 15. | The kurtosis in both these cases is 1.
|
| 16. | Bajgier and Aggarwal have propsoed a test based on the kurtosis of the distribution.
|
| 17. | These quantities consistently estimate the theoretical skewness and kurtosis of the distribution, respectively.
|
| 18. | Pearson's definition of kurtosis is used as an indicator of intermittency in turbulence.
|
| 19. | Now the parameter " m " only controls the kurtosis of the distribution.
|
| 20. | This is a distribution with excess kurtosis.
