BayesFactor-package {BayesFactor} | R Documentation

## Functions to compute Bayes factor hypothesis tests for common research designs and hypotheses.

### Description

This package contains function to compute Bayes factors for a number of research designs and hypotheses, including t tests, ANOVA, and linear regression, correlations, proportions, and contingency tables.

### Details

Package: | BayesFactor
Type: | Package
Version: | 0.9.12-4.2
Date: | 2018-5-09
License: | GPL 2.0
LazyLoad: | yes

The following methods are currently implemented, with more to follow:

general linear models (including linear mixed effects models): `generalTestBF`, `lmBF`

linear regression: `regressionBF`, `lmBF`, `linearReg.R2stat`;

linear correlation: `correlationBF`;

t tests: `ttestBF`, `ttest.tstat`;

meta-analytic t tests: `meta.ttestBF`

ANOVA: `anovaBF`, `lmBF`, `oneWayAOV.Fstat`;

contingency tables: `contingencyTableBF`;

single proportions: `proportionBF`;

linear correlations: `correlationBF`;

Other useful functions: `posterior`, for sampling from posterior distributions; `recompute`, for re-estimating a Bayes factor or posterior distribution; `compare`, to compare two model posteriors; and `plot.BFBayesFactor`, for plotting Bayes factor objects.
