Weakly informative prior. This prior is weakly informative. It will nudge your posterior but won't overwhelm it; expect data to do most of the work in modest samples.

Intervals

Confidence interval (95%) — uncertainty about the mean ρ
[0.64, 0.68]
Credibility interval (95%) — distribution of the true effect across settings (the Bayesian prior)
— needs ≥2 studies to estimate (k = 1)
I² (heterogeneity) — share of total variance from between-study differences
— needs ≥2 studies to estimate

k<2 — between-study heterogeneity not estimable; credibility interval / generalization not assessed

Evidence provenance

published ρ=0.66 (k=1, replication: meta-analytic); no primary-deployment evidence yet

Sourceρ (r)Scope
Published literature0.66k = 1 · N = 4,105

No primary-deployment evidence yet — this prior rests on published literature alone. As anonymized, aggregated effect sizes from real deployments are contributed, they appear here as a distinct, publication-bias-free source, fused with the literature into a posterior estimate.
