In proportion: Inference on Single Binomial Proportion and Bayesian Computations

Description

Bayesain Hypothesis testing given x: Hypothesis 3: Theta = Theta0 Vs Theta < Theta0

Usage

hypotestBAF3x(x, n, th0, a1, b1)

Arguments

x	- Number of success
n	- Number of trials from data
th0	- Hypothetical parameter for H0
a1	- Priors for hypothesis H1
b1	- Priors for hypothesis H1

Details

Computes Bayes factor under Beta-Binomial model for the model: p = p0 Vs p < p0 from the given number of trials n and and for given number of successes x = 0, 1, 2......n We use the following guideline for reporting the results:

• 1/3 <= BaFa01 < 1: Evidence against H0 is not worth more than a bare mention.

• 1/20 <= BaFa01 < 1/3: Evidence against H0 is positive.

• 1/150 <= BaFa01 < 1/20: Evidence against H0 is strong.

• BaFa10 < 1/150: Evidence against H0 is very strong.

• 1 <= BaFa01 < 3: Evidence against H1 is not worth more than a bare mention.

• 3 <= BaFa01 < 20: Evidence against H1 is positive.

• 20 <= BaFa01 < 150: Evidence against H1 is strong.

• 150 <= BaFa01: Evidence against H1 is very strong.

Value

A dataframe with

x	Number of successes
BaFa01	Bayesian Factor
