Everything about Probability of direction
Mathematical index used in Bayesian statistics
In Bayesian statistics, the probability of direction (pd) is a measure of effect existence representing the certainty with which an effect is positive or negative. This index is numerically similar to the frequentist p-value. Wikipedia →
