This completes my summary of the 7 chapters. For years I laboured under the inconsistencies of 'significance testing' - Bayesian methods have been a liberation. Thanks to the developers of @mcmc_stan for wonderful software. us.sagepub.com/en-us/nam/baye… @SAGE_Methods

Chapter 7 covers multivariate responses for normal and multinomial responses. Also Markov Chain Monte Carlo - the machinery behind Bayesian methods is illustrated. Gambers' Ruin is used to discuss core ideas and a critical comparison with the frequentist paradigm. @SAGE_Methods
