Bayesian Pearson Correlation: Criteria

You can specify the following analysis criteria for Bayesian Pearson Correlation Inference (pairwise).

Credible interval percentage %

Specify the significance level for computing credible intervals. The default level is 95%.

Missing Values

Specify the method in which to control missing values.

Exclude cases pairwise

This setting excludes records that include missing values pairwise.

Exclude cases listwise

This setting excludes records that include missing values listwise. Records that include missing values for any field that is named on any subcommand are excluded from all analysis.

Note: The following options are available only when either the Estimate Bayes Factor or Use Both Methods option is selected for Bayesian Analysis.

Numerical Method

Specify the numerical method that is used to estimate the integral.

Set custom seed

When selected, you can specify a custom seed value in the Seed field.

Tolerance

Specify the tolerance value for the numerical methods. The default setting is 0.000001.

Maximum iterations

Specify the maximum number of method iterations. The value must be a positive integer. The default setting is 2000.

Number of Monte Carlo Samples

Specify the number of points that are sampled for the Monte Carlo approximation. The value must be a positive integer. The default value is 10000.

Samples Simulated for Posterior Distribution

Specify the number of samples that are used to draw the desired posterior distribution. The default value is 10000.
