Abstract: In this paper Bayesian hypothesis tests through Bayes factor B have been obtained. Bayesian hypothesis tests of independence and symmetry for four bivariate exponential models have been derived. Simulation study has been carried out to examine the power of suggested tests.

Keywords: Bayesian testing, bivariate exponential, independence, simulation study, symmetry
