Abstract
This article considers the method of posterior predictive distributions as the one of the specific tools for checking the correspondence between data and the statistical model. The generated examples demonstrate that in the role of posterior predictive testing statistics (as a discrepancy measure), dispersion measures should be taken, because the central tendency measures do not give the expected results.
