Consistency of Objective Bayes Factors as the Model Dimension Grows
In the class of normal regression models with a finite number of regressors, and for a wide class of prior distributions, a Bayesian model selection procedure based on the Bayes factor is consistent [Casella and Moreno J. Amer. Statist. Assoc. 104 (2009) 1261–1271]. However, in models where the number of parameters increases as the sample size increases, properties of the Bayes factor are not t...
متن کاملConsistency of objective Bayes factors for nonnested linear models and increasing model dimension
Casella et al. [2, (2009)] proved that, under very general conditions, for normal linear models the Bayes factor for a wide class of prior distributions, including the intrinsic priors, is consistent when the number of parameters does not grow with the sample size n. The special attention paid to the intrinsic priors is due to the fact that they are nonsubjective priors, and thus accessible pri...
متن کاملObjective Bayes model selection in probit models.
We describe a new variable selection procedure for categorical responses where the candidate models are all probit regression models. The procedure uses objective intrinsic priors for the model parameters, which do not depend on tuning parameters, and ranks the models for the different subsets of covariates according to their model posterior probabilities. When the number of covariates is moder...

In this paper, we present a Bayes factor solution for inference in multiple regression. Bayes factors are principled measures of the relative evidence from data for various models or positions, including models that embed null hypotheses. In this regard, they may be used to state positive evidence for a lack of an effect, which is not possible in conventional significance testing. One obstacle ...
