Learn Bayes suggestions #82
Comments
Thanks for the suggestions @JohnnyDoorn |
I wouldn't mind having the specifications of models and hypothesis before the data. That agrees with the model and hypothesis first principle. It will indeed a bit different from standard analyses such as the z-test, but there default choices are made. When learning Bayes I think that first putting forward hypotheses is quite reasonable. |
There is not a single analysis in JASP where we put data second, right? The data always come first in JASP. Also in Summary Stats. |
In the audit module data comes later. In the standard analyses the data indeed come first, but that's because the models and default priors are chosen once you've chosen the associated analysis. In the learn Bayes module you don't only study default analyses. Considering the flow of information from prior, using data to update to posteriors. From a teaching perspective I think it's reasonable to specify priors first. |
OK, I see. Well I can be pursuaded. @FBartos what do you think? |
hmm, I don't have a strong emotional attachment to any order in particular, so I wouldn't mind changing it. |
I just took a more thorough look at the Learn Bayes module, for my upcoming teaching tasks (intro Bayes first year bachelors students). I noticed two possible improvements:
What do you think @EJWagenmakers and @FBartos?
