Likelihood Ratio Test for Publication Bias Likelihood Ratio Test for Publication Bias β€” a statistical method to detect and quantify publication bias in heterogeneous datasets.

#statstab #504 Likelihood Ratio Test for Publication Bias

Thoughts: Interesting idea for a problem many of us think is present, but is hard to measure.

What are credible priors and what are skeptical priors? A few weeks ago Dan Scharfstein asked a group of colleagues about how to report an odds ratio of 1.70 with 95% confidence limits of 0.96 and 3.02. Back-calculating from these statistics gives a two-si...

Thoughts: Dienes presents a different way to compute BFs using the sample data. But, this can be seen as an acceptable double-dipping.

Supplementary material: A Tutorial on Safe Anytime-Valid Inference: Practical Maximally Flexible Sampling Designs for Experiments Based on e-Values Hosted on the Open Science Framework

#statstab #308 A Tutorial on Safe Anytime-Valid Inference [t-test]

Thoughts: Safe Anytime Valid Inferences (SAVI) are the future for frequentist stats. Since #253 I'm more convinced.

β€œThe full p-value function arguably records the full measurement information that a user should be entitled to know! We also note that the p-value function is widely available for any scalar interest parameter and any model-data combination with just moderate regularity, and has available computational procedures.

In addition to the overt statistical position, the p-value function also provides easily and accurately many of the familiar types of summary information: a median estimate of the parameter; a one-sided test statistic for a scalar parameter value at any chosen level; the related power function; a lower confidence bound at any level; an upper confidence bound at any level; and confidence intervals with chosen upper and lower confidence limits. The p value reports all the common inference material, but with high accuracy, basic uniqueness, and wide generality.

From a scientific perspective, the likelihood function and p-value function provide the basis for scientific judgments by an investigator, and by other investigators who might have interest. It thus replaces a blunt yes or no decision by an opportunity for appropriate informed judgment.
