We start from a Left-Right Symmetric Model and we analyze the beta decay of the free neutron $n\to p+e^{-}+\bar{\nu}_{e}$. We applied this model to incorporate the right currents, whereby we propose an amplitude whose leptonic part contains the parameter $\lambda $ defined as left-right asymmetry parameter which measures the parity violation. The analysis consists of seeing how the spectrum of energy of the electrons, the total rate of decay, and the lifetime $\tau $ of the neutron are affected by the left-right asymmetry parameter, besides taking into account corrections of mass, that is, $m_{e}\neq 0$, $m_{p}\neq m_{n}$, and the recoil of the proton.
