We define the extended beta family of distributions to generalize the beta generator pioneered by Eugene et al. [10]. This paper is cited in at least 970 scientific articles and extends more than fifty well-known distributions. Any continuous distribution can be generalized by means of this family. The proposed family can present greater flexibility to model skewed data. Some of its mathematical properties are investigated and maximum likelihood is adopted to estimate its parameters. Further, for different parameter settings and sample sizes, some simulations are conducted. The superiority of the proposed family is illustrated by means of two real data sets.
