Biometrics, 2020, vol. 76, issue 2, 599-601

Abstract: Neuenschwander et al. address a seemingly easy but often complicated problem in applied Bayesian methodology. We discuss some issues that relate to the question of why one might care about the effective sample size (ESS) in a Bayesian model and the motivation for reporting the ESS.
