By extending the Topp-Leone distribution, the proposed model offers greater flexibility in terms of skewness and kurtosis, making it suitable for a broader range of real-world applications. We examine key properties of the distribution, including its moments and behavior in terms of skewness and kurtosis. Parameter estimation using the maximum likelihood method is also discussed. A Monte Carlo simulation study is conducted to evaluate the performance of the estimators. Finally, to illustrate its practical utility, we apply the Lambert-Topp-Leone distribution to real-world datasets, demonstrating its superior fit for proportion and lifetime data compared to traditional models. The results suggest that this distribution provides a valuable tool for researchers and professionals in fields that require versatile modeling of bounded or positively skewed data. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.openAccessGOODNESS-OF-FITKURTOSISLAMBERT GENERATORLIFETIME DATAMAXIMUM LIKELIHOOD ESTIMATIONPROPORTION DATASKEWNESSArtículo https://doi.org/10.3389/fams.2025.1527833
