replyI think that's what make the bayesian faction of statistics so appealing. Updating their prior belief based on new evidence is at the core of the scinetific method. Take that frequentists.
It does not seem fair to say that frequentists do not update their beliefs based on new evidence. This does not seem to accurately capture what the difference between Bayesians and frequentists (or anyone else) is.
