contents Recently, Griffin, Ono, and Tsai examined the distribution of the number of $t$-hooks in partitions of $n$, which was later followed by the work of Craig, Ono, and Singh on the distribution of the number of $t$-hooks in self-conjugate partitions of $n$. Motivated by these studies, in this paper, we further investigate the number of $t$-hooks in some subsets of partitions. More specifically, we obtain the generating functions for the number of $t$-hooks in doubled distinct partitions and the number of $t$-shifted hooks in strict partitions. Based on these generating functions, we prove that the number of $t$-hooks in doubled distinct partitions and the number of $t$-shifted hooks in strict partitions are both asymptotically normally distributed.
