9 Bayesian inference
... Bayesian procedure is (i) use the data to obtain the posterior distribution of θ; (ii) calculate P (θ > 0.01). EC rules are formulated in statistical terms and, in such cases, allow for a 5% significance level. This could be interpreted in a Bayesian sense as allowing for a wrong decision with probab ...

Discrete Random Variables
... They must always be numerical values. For example, you could toss a coin and say ‘how many heads?’, the answer being 1 or 0. However you could not say ‘heads or tails’ as these are not numerical. The possibilities can only be whole numbers (discrete). There can be others but these are not the focus ...

Statistical Inference: The Big Picture Robert E. Kass June 15, 2010
... Note, in particular, that data should not be confused with random variables. Random variables live in the theoretical world. When we say things like, “Let us assume the data are normally distributed” and we proceed to make a statistical inference, we do not need to take these words literally as ass ...
