Skewness is the term associated with the lack of symmetry in a distribution. A distribution is considered skewed if it is not symmetrical around its mean. If most of the data is on the right side of the graph, it is said to be positively skewed or skewed to the right. If most of the data is on the left side of the graph, it is said to be negatively skewed or skewed to the left.
