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
[0.39, 0.63]
Credibility interval (95%) — distribution of the true effect across settings (the Bayesian prior)
[0.52, 0.52]
I² (heterogeneity) — share of total variance from between-study differences
0% — studies largely agree

The true effect is ~constant across settings — it generalizes.

SD_ρ≈0 — true effect is ~constant across settings; generalizes (observed-score scale until artifact correction, PRN-058)

Evidence provenance

published ρ=0.52 (k=2, replication: replicated); no primary-deployment evidence yet

Sourceρ (r)Scope
Published literature0.52k = 2 · N = 100

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.
