Summary:
We study moments of the difference $D_n(x)-x^n n! {\rm e}^{-1/x}$ concerning derangement polynomials $D_n(x)$. For the first moment, we obtain an explicit formula in terms of the exponential integral function and we show that it is always negative for $x>0$. For the higher moments, we obtain a multiple integral representation of the order of the moment under computation.
