ABSTRACT This paper introduces a general class of distributions generated from the logit of the beta random variable. A special case of this family is the beta-normal distribution. The shape properties of the beta-normal distribution are discussed. Estimation of parameters of the beta-normal distribution by the maximum likelihood method is also discussed. The beta-normal distribution provides great flexibility in modeling not only symmetric heavy-tailed distributions, but also skewed and bimodal distributions. The flexibility of this distribution is illustrated by applying it to two empirical data sets and comparing the results to previously used methods.
