• Just as a Bayesian posterior distribution contains a wealth of information for any type of Bayesian inference, a confidence distribution contains a wealth of information for constructing almost all types of frequentist inferences, including point estimates, confidence intervals, critical values, statistical power and p-values, among others.

  • It is also believed that these "unproductive disputes" and Fisher's "stubborn insistence" might be the reason that the concept of confidence distribution has been long misconstrued as a fiducial concept and not been fully developed under the frequentist framework. (wikipedia.org)
  • Indeed, the confidence distribution is a purely frequentist concept with a purely frequentist interpretation, although it also has ties to Bayesian and fiducial inference concepts. (wikipedia.org)
  • In the classical literature, the confidence distribution function is interpreted as a distribution function of the parameter θ, which is impossible unless fiducial reasoning is involved since, in a frequentist setting, the parameters are fixed and nonrandom. (wikipedia.org)
  • The nice thing about treating confidence distributions as a purely frequentist concept (similar to a point estimator) is that it is now free from those restrictive, if not controversial, constraints set forth by Fisher on fiducial distributions. (wikipedia.org)
