Abstract

Taking the goodness of fit test (Chi test) as an example, this paper attempts to calculate the Bayesian factor BF10 of n-fold Bernoulli test by the Excel software (using JASP software as the evidence). The results showed that in the range of 0.15-0.55 (the rate of samples which are all "true"), the calculated results of Excel were more accurate, and the differences between the two (Excel and JASP) were not statistically significant (P>0.3).
