Abstract
An exponentiated Weibull-geometric distribution is defined and studied. A new count data regression model, based on the exponentiated Weibull-geometric distribution, is also defined. The regression model can be applied to fit an underdispersed or an over-dispersed count data. The exponentiated Weibull-geometric regression model is fitted to two numerical data sets. The new model provided a better fit than the fit from its competitors.
