Although bootstrapping has become widely used in statistical analysis, there has been little reported concerning bootstrapped Bayesian analyses, especially when there is proper prior informa-tion concerning the parameter of interest. In this paper, we first propose an operationally implementable definition of a Bayesian bootstrap. Thereafter, in simulated studies of the estimation of means and variances, this Bayesian bootstrap is compared to various parametric procedures. It turns out that little information is lost in using the Bayesian bootstrap even when the sampling distribution is known. On the other hand, the parametric procedures are at times very sensitive to incorrectly specified sampling distributions, implying that the Bayesian bootstrap is a very robust procedure for determining the posterior distribution of the parameter. |
