We consider statistics defined on sequences of symmetrically dependent random variables such that the numbers of ascents, descents, equalities, double ascents, double descents, the number of peaks, and the number of cavities. We obtain explicit expressions for the first moments of such statistics in terms of simple characteristics of the joint distributions.
