The r (preference) parameter in Young et al. model takes a prior exponential distribution with rate = beta. Use this function to visualise the prior distribution of r given the chosen beta. Alternatively, if providing the fitted model, a plot comparing the prior versus posterior preference(s) will be produced.

Usage

plot_prior(beta = NULL, fit = NULL, data = NULL)

Arguments

beta

A number > 0. Rate of the exponential distribution.

fit

A fitted model, as obtained from fit_model().

data

Data list (from prepare_data()).

Value

A plot

Examples

if (FALSE) { # interactive()
## Providing value for beta
plot_prior(beta = 0.01)
plot_prior(beta = 0.001)

## Providing fitted model
data(web)
dt <- prepare_data(mat = web, sampl.eff = rep(20, nrow(web)))
fit <- fit_model(dt, refresh = 0)
plot_prior(fit = fit, data = dt)
}
