In 2019 we wrote an article (Tendeiro & Kiers, 2019) in Psychological Methods over null hypothesis Bayesian testing and its working horse, the Bayes factor. Recently, van Ravenzwaaij and Wagenmakers (2021) offered a response to our piece, also in this journal. Although we do welcome their contribution with thought-provoking remarks on our article, we ended up concluding that there were too many “issues” in van Ravenzwaaij and Wagenmakers (2021) that warrant a rebuttal. In this article we both defend the main premises of our original article and we put the contribution of van Ravenzwaaij and Wagenmakers (2021) under critical appraisal. Our hope is that this exchange between scholars decisively contributes toward a better understanding among psychologists of null hypothesis Bayesian testing in general and of the Bayes factor in particular.

关于白色、黑色和介于两者之间的多种灰色阴影：我们对 Van Ravenzwaaij 和 Wagenmakers（2021 年）的回复。

2019 年，我们在关于零假设贝叶斯检验及其工作马贝叶斯因子的心理学方法中写了一篇文章 (Tendeiro & Kiers, 2019)。最近，van Ravenzwaaij 和 Wagenmakers（2021 年）对我们的文章做出了回应，也在本期刊中。尽管我们确实欢迎他们对我们文章的发人深省的评论的贡献，但我们最终得出的结论是，van Ravenzwaaij 和 Wagenmakers（2021 年）存在太多需要反驳的“问题”。在本文中，我们都捍卫了原始文章的主要前提，并对 van Ravenzwaaij 和 Wagenmakers（2021 年）的贡献进行了批判性评估。我们希望，学者之间的这种交流决定性地有助于心理学家更好地理解一般的零假设贝叶斯检验，特别是贝叶斯因子。
