%X In this article we study the properties, inference, and statistical applications to a parametric generalization of the truncation positive normal distribution, introducing a new parameter so as to increase the flexibility of the new model. For certain combinations of parameters, the model includes both symmetric and asymmetric shapes. We study the model¡¯s basic properties, maximum likelihood estimators and Fisher information matrix. Finally, we apply it to two real data sets to show the model¡¯s good performance compared to other models with positive support: the first, related to the height of the drum of the roller and the second, related to daily cholesterol consumption
