In statistics, a central tendency (or, more commonly, a measure of central tendency) is a central or typical value for a probability distribution.It may also be called a center or location of the distribution.Colloquially, measures of central tendency are often called averages.hat is, given a measure of statistical dispersion, one asks for a measure of central tendency that minimizes variation: such that variation from the center is minimal among all choices of center. In a quip, dispersion precedes location.
In other words, the midrange takes into account the zero-values that exist between minimum and maximum as coincidental, and assumes the possibilities of values collected evenly spaced. The disadvantage of the midrange, however, is the fact that it fails to weight the data collected.t is a relatively straight-forward measure of central tendency. It is merely the arithmetic mean amongst the data subset including only the minimum and maximum values of the larger set, ignoring all intermediate values of the set.
