Talk: 9:00 -- 10:00 a.m.

An introduction to Bayesian modeling is discussed within the context of the logistic model.  The rationale for Bayes, the choice of informative priors, model fitting, and model checking will be discussed.  Bayesian model checking will be discussed for an example trying to find "true" streakiness in baseball win/loss data.
