a
Let m=F−1(1/2) be the unique median. The influence function of the sample median is
IF(x;T,F)=2f(m)1{x>m}​−1{x<m}​​
(1)
away from m. Its second moment, equivalently the asymptotic distribution of a sample median, gives
A(T,F)=EF​[IF(X;T,F)2]=4f(F−1(1/2))21​.
(2)
No symmetry assumption is used: the density is evaluated at the actual median of F.
