Bayesian t tests for accepting and rejecting the null hypothesis.
Progress in science often comes from discovering invariances in relationships among variables; these invariances often correspond to null hypotheses. As is commonly known, it is not possible to state evidence for the null hypothesis in conventional significance testing. Here we highlight a Bayes factor alternative to the conventional t test that will allow researchers to express preference for ...
متن کاملBayesian two-sample tests
In this paper, we present two classes of Bayesian approaches to the twosample problem. Our first class of methods extends the Bayesian t-test to include all parametric models in the exponential family and their conjugate priors. Our second class of methods uses Dirichlet process mixtures (DPM) of such conjugate-exponential distributions as flexible nonparametric priors over the unknown distribu...
متن کاملStructurally-informed Bayesian functional connectivity analysis
Functional connectivity refers to covarying activity between spatially segregated brain regions and can be studied by measuring correlation between functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) time series. These correlations can be caused either by direct communication via active axonal pathways or indirectly via the interaction with other regions. It is not possible to discriminate between the...
متن کاملBayesian persuasion by a privately informed sender
This paper introduces private sender information in a game of Bayesian persuasion with monotonic sender preferences. I derive properties of increasing di¤erences related to the precision of signals and use these to characterize the set of equilibria selected by the D1 criterion. These equilibria are either separating (i.e., the senders choice of signal reveals his private information to the re...
متن کاملUniformly Most Powerful Bayesian Tests.
Uniformly most powerful tests are statistical hypothesis tests that provide the greatest power against a fixed null hypothesis among all tests of a given size. In this article, the notion of uniformly most powerful tests is extended to the Bayesian setting by defining uniformly most powerful Bayesian tests to be tests that maximize the probability that the Bayes factor, in favor of the alternat...
