Summary. An extension of the three-parameter triangular distribution utilized in risk analysis is discussed. Special cases of the resulting four-parameter family include the triangular distribution, the power function distribution and the uniform distribution. Expert judgment elicitation of its parameters is discussed as well as moment estimation and maximum likelihood estimation of its parameters by using sample data.
