In metaBMA: Bayesian Model Averaging for Random and Fixed Effects Meta-Analysis

Predicted Bayes Factors for a New Study

Description

How much can be learned by an additional study? To judge this, this function samples the distribution of predicted Bayes factors for a new study given the current evidence.

Usage

predicted_bf(meta, SE, sample = 100, ...)

Arguments

meta	model-averaged meta-analysis (fitted with meta_bma).
SE	a scalar: the expected standard error of future study. For instance, SE = 1/sqrt(N) for standardized effect sizes and N = sample size)
sample	number of simulated Bayes factors
...	further arguments passed to rstan::sampling to draw posterior samples for d and tau.
