• Prior sensitivity in theory testing: An apologia for the Bayes factor (2010, background): “…known to be highly sensitive to the prior, it is often stressed that it is important to check that conclusions based on the marginal likelihood are not too sensitive to the choice of the prior, in the form of a sensitivity analysis (Kass & Raftery, 1995; Myung & Pitt, 1997; Sinharay & Stern, 2002).”
