normal · uninformative · 1 studies · N = 50

Distribution

Uninformative prior. This prior is uninformative — too thin to dominate small-N posteriors. Treat as a placeholder until more evidence lands.

Intervals

Confidence interval (95%) — uncertainty about the mean ρ

[-0.07, 0.50]

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=0.24 (k=1, replication: single); no primary-deployment evidence yet

• replication: single
• aging literature (freshness=0.28)

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.

Code

target += normal_lpdf(beta | 0.244774, 0.158114);

beta = pm.Normal("beta", mu=0.244774, sigma=0.158114)

brms::prior(normal(0.244774, 0.158114), class = "b")

# base R sample
rnorm(N, mean = 0.244774, sd = 0.158114)

np.random.normal(loc=0.244774, scale=0.158114, size=N)
