The credible interval is the Bayesian equivalent of a confidence interval, but the interpretation of it is slightly different: the probability that a parameter is in an X% credible interval is X / 100. For example, a 95% credible interval (0.82-1.36) for an odds ratio for mortality means that there is a 0.95 probability that the odds ratio in the population is between 0.82 and 1.36. 1, record 1, English, - credible%20interval

L’intervalle de crédibilité est l’équivalent bayésien de l’intervalle de confiance, dont l’interprétation est toutefois légèrement différente : la probabilité qu’un paramètre soit dans un intervalle de crédibilité à X % est de X / 100. Par exemple, un intervalle de crédibilité à 95 % (0,82-1,36) autour d’un rapport des cotes de mortalité signifie qu’il y a une probabilité de 0,95 que le rapport des cotes dans la population se situe entre 0,82 et 1,36. 1, record 1, French, - intervalle%20de%20cr%C3%A9dibilit%C3%A9
