In this contribution we explain the recently introduced notion of the distribution-dependent scalar-valued score function of distribution. Function and its moments are used for description of continuous distributions and data samples generated from them. Each distribution including the heavy-tailed ones and random samples from them are described by a typical value and variability. Further, we discuss the generalized (score) moment estimates and a distribution-dependent score correlation coefficient for continuous random variables, and present results of simulation experiments with data generated from heavy-tailed distributions. Since score functions of distribution of heavy-tailed distributions are bounded, the point estimates as well as the sample score correlation coefficients are insensitive to outliers.
