Description

Join us for an intuitive introduction to Bayesian analysis and a demonstration of how easily you can fit Bayesian regression models in Stata via the bayes prefix. We will give an overview of Bayesian concepts such as posterior distributions and their simulation. We will then demonstrate how to perform Bayesian regressions and interpret their results. Learn how you can specify priors, compare models, check convergence, and perform interval hypothesis testing.

Learn more about Bayesian analysis.
