Table 1.

Evidence categories for the Bayes factor (Jeffreys, 1961 [10]).

Bayes factor Interpretation
B jj < 1/100 Decisive evidence for model j
1/100 < B jj < 1/30 Very strong evidence for model j
1/30 < B jj < 1/10 Strong evidence for model j
1/10 < B jj < 1/3 Substantial evidence for model j
1/3 < B jj < 1 Anecdotal evidence for model j
B jj = 1 No evidence
1 < B jj < 3 Anecdotal evidence for model j
3 < B jj < 10 Substantial evidence for model j
10 < B jj < 30 Strong evidence for model j
30 < B jj < 100 Very strong evidence for model j
B jj > 100 Decisive evidence for model j
