Bayesian Evaluation of Informative Hypotheses edited by Herbert Hoijtink, Irene Klugkist, Paul Boelen.

This book presents an alternative for traditional null hypothesis testing. It builds on the idea that researchers usually have more informative research-questions than the "nothing is going on" null hypothesis, or the "something is going on" alternative hypothesis. To be more pre...
