Encompassing Prior Based Model Selection for Inequality Constrained Analysis of Variance

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Statistics for Social and Behavioral Sciences ((SSBS))

Abstract

In Chapter 2, three psychological datasets with competing, informative hypotheses were introduced. For instance, with respect to the Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) data of Huntjens, two competing theories about interidentity amnesia were presented [11]. Some believe that information provided to one identity cannot be retrieved by another identity of the DID-patient; that is, there is no transfer of information between identities.
