The tt distribution is therefore leptokurtic. The t distribution approaches the normal distribution as the degrees of freedom increase.

In practice, neither one is used anywhere near as frequently as the measures of central tendency and variability that we’ve been talking about. Skew is pretty important, so you do see it mentioned a fair bit; but I’ve actually never seen kurtosis reported in a scientific article to date.
