Likelihood ratios for deviance differences using PBCM model comparisons

Likelihood Ratios S1 S2 S3 S4
L(DH1DH3|H3)L(DH1DH3|H1) 6 × 1043 2 × 10165 3 × 1064 1.03
L(DH2DH3|H3)L(DH2DH3|H2) 1 × 1012 1 × 1022 6 × 1021 0.17

Ratios greater than 1 indicate a preferable model fit for hypothesis 3 (H3) than either hypothesis 1 (H1; row 1), or hypothesis 2 (H2; row 2); ratios greater than 100 indicate a “decisively” better fit while less than 0.01 corresponds to a significantly worse fit (Jeffreys 1998). The fits for each subject (S1–S4) from experiment 1 are shown. S1–S3 are fit decisively better by the H3 model while there are not enough uncertain responses for subject S4 to determine the best fit.
