Bayesian Ecological Study
A Bayesian ecological study combines the group-level observational design of classical ecological epidemiology with Bayesian hierarchical modelling. Rather than treating disease rates as fixed quantities, it places prior distributions over latent spatial or temporal effects — commonly using the Besag-York-Mollié (BYM) convolution prior — and updates beliefs from aggregate data to produce posterior maps of disease risk, smoothed rate estimates, and credible intervals for ecological associations between exposures and outcomes.
