A Bayesian tour of binomial inference

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

This article presents inferential methods for the binomial proportion in a unified way, as variations on a conjugate-Bayesian theme. An overlooked interval emerges as the best-performing approximate interval for small samples. This approach is simple, intuitive, and illuminating, and may hold pedagogical value for instructors of advanced courses on statistical inference.
