General Properties

We look at the issue of obtaining a variance like measure associated with probability distributions over ordinal sets. We call these dissonance measures. We specify some general properties desired in these dissonance measures. The centrality of the cumulative distribution function in formulating the concept of dissonance is pointed out. We introduce some specific examples of measures of dissonance.

Trimmed Sum

Let X, X1, X2,… be a sequence of non-degenerate i.i.d. random variables with common distribution function F. For 1 ≤ j ≤ n, let mn(j) be the number of Xi satisfying either |Xi| > |Xj|, 1 ≤ i ≤ n, or |Xi| = |Xj|, 1 ≤ i ≤ j, and let (r)Xn = Xj if mn(j) = r. Thus (r)Xn is the rth largest random variable in absolute value from amongst X1, …, Xn with ties being broken according to the order in which the random variables occur. Set (r)Sn = (r+1)Xn + … + (n)Xn and write Sn for (0)Sn. We will refer to (r)Sn as a trimmed sum.

Fuzzy Random

In this paper, rst a new notion of fuzzy random variables is introduced. Then, usingclassical techniques in Probability Theory, some aspects and results associated to a randomvariable (including expectation, variance, covariance, correlation coecient, etc.) will beextended to this new environment. Furthermore, within this framework, we can use thetools of general Probability Theory to dene fuzzy cumulative distribution function of afuzzy random variable.
