## Abstract (arXiv)

Model checking procedures are considered based on the use of the Dirichlet process and relative belief. This combination is seen to lead to some unique advantages for this problem. In particular, it avoids double use of the data and prior-data conflict. Several examples have been incorporated, in which the proposed approach exhibits excellent performance.
