Typo in posterior z-score? #38

Closed fweber144 closed 3 years ago

fweber144 commented 3 years ago

In the case study "Towards A Principled Bayesian Workflow", I think there's a typo in the definition of the posterior z-score (section 1.3.2 "A Bayesian Eye Chart"): Shouldn't the denominator be the marginal posterior standard deviation instead of the marginal posterior mean (see also here)?

Correct, thanks for pointing this out. This is already on the overdue to-fix list!
