Bayesian Contingency Table
I am conducting a 2 X 2 Bayesian contingency table, placing the IV in the columns and the DV in the rows, using a indep. multinomial, columns fixed. In the *Alt. Hpothesis* section, what does the *group one < group two* refer to? Is it comparing the proportions of the first row (0) across the two columns? Or is it comparing the proportions of the second row (1) across the two columns? What is being considered in the comparison for less than?
Put another way, if I assume group 1 is less than group 2 (the 1,1 cell should be less than the 0,1 cell), correct?
Also, can I assume that the Jasp labels for 0 is group 1 and 1 is group 2?
Comments
If the columns are fixed, then each column is a group. Group one will be the first column, group two will be the second column. So yes, the proportions are compared across the columns. The sample proportions for each column are obtained from the information in the column rows. See the Jamil paper for examples.
