Primes

• Bayesian Cue Integration
  • In statistical meta-analysis it is random-effects pooling that weights studies by inverse variance — the "weight a study by one over its squared standard error" rule is precisely the cue-integration formula.

    This sourceEstablishes random-effects inverse-variance pooling — weighting each study by one over its squared standard error — the cue-integration formula in meta-analysis.

• Precision Weighting
  • The context-dependence appears in random-effects models, where between-study heterogeneity inflates variances and down-weights over-precise outliers.

    This sourceIntroduces the random-effects model, inflating variances to down-weight over-precise outliers under between-study heterogeneity.
