Resumo: Bayesian statistical analysis has become an important tool in modern fisheries sciences. We assert that this success is due to the ease in which uncertainty can be explicitly incorporated in inference and decision making. To appreciate the profound conceptual change implied by the switch from frequentist to Bayesian views, it is necessary to understand probability as a wider, more powerful concept: quantification of inductive logic. The advantages resulting for fisheries sciences are examined and illustrated with examples. Some alleged weaknesses of the Bayesian approach are questioned. The important ability and still under-explored potential of Bayesian decision analysis to keep facts and values apart, is also highlighted.

Nós propomos aqui que este sucesso se deve à simplicidade com que as incertezas podem ser explicitadas tanto em inferência quanto na tomada de decisão. Para perceber a profundidade da mudança conceitual envolvida na mudança do enfoque freqüentista ao Bayesiano, é necessário entender a sua concepção mais ampla e poderosa de probabilidade: quantificação de lógica indutiva. As vantagens que derivam disso para as ciências pesqueiras são examinadas e ilustradas com exemplos. Algumas alegadas fraquezas do enfoque Bayesiano são questionadas. A importante, porém ainda sub-explorada, habilidade da análise Bayesiana de decisão em distinguir os fatos científicos de valores e prioridades da sociedade é também destacada.2011-08-24T03:29:12Z2011-08-24T03:29:12Z2007info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfKINAS, Paul G. ; ANDRADE, Humber A.
