There are quite few discussions how to perform posterior predictive checks (both visually and quantitatively) for binomial and logistic regression. I have a stan model for binomial classification and generated posterior predictive distribution. I am struggling to understand how to use it to assess the model.
I still not sure what could be discrepancy variable T in the context of veterinary trials where y is the number of dogs at a particular clinics for which treatment was successful. Can someone suggest T which makes sense?
I think dog example aligns well with veterinary trials. Each site corresponds to t in the paper while each dog corresponds to the j in the paper. Thus y_{jt} =1 if treatment was effective for a dog j at site t. Residual plots described in 4.3 are applicable. I wonder if there are some other ways to use predictive posterior for model checking in binary clinical trial domain?
