Table 2 Goodness-of-fit parameters for age, age-drift, age-period and age-period-cohort models

From: Description of cervical cancer mortality in Belgium using Bayesian age-period-cohort models

Model	$\bar{D}$	$\hat{D}$	pD	DIC
Age	4257.74	4244.75	12.99	4270.73
Age-drift	1154.03	1140.02	14.01	1168.03
Age-Period	1126.62	1105.54	21.08	1147.70
Age-Cohort	898.55	866.47	32.08	930.62
Age-Period-Cohort	873.03	836.22	36.31	909.84

$\bar{D}$ = posterior mean of -2logL; $\hat{D}$ = -2LogL at posterior mean of stochastic nodes
pD= difference between $\bar{D}$ and $\hat{D}$ or approximate number of parameters
