Dear all,
just a quick question for my understanding of the proper use of the command "interval()".
Let's presume we know of the family relationship between dated individuals.
We know who are the parents, the children and also that they have did of older age.
We sequence the children after their parents.
And we also want to add the "generational gap", i.e. the typical time between two generations. For that we would like to use the "interval()" command.
Where would we put "interval()" in the bayesian model?
Please look at the two ways below.
We would not argue what a typically value of that generational gap would be (hence the large uncertainty). This is another discussion.
But where would we place the "interval()" command?
Thanks all!!
Best
Ronny
