Abstract

Given a random sample from a distribution with density function that depends on an unknown parameter θ = (θ1, θ2), we are concerned with frequentist validity, up to o(n−1), of posterior quantiles of θ1, treating θ2 as a nuisance parameter. We propose to make the best choice of the prior on θ by matching, as far as practicable, the posterior and frequentist coverage probabilities up to o(n−1).
