Abstract
Opisano subiektywne i obiektywne rozkłady a priori. Omówiono metody parametryczne, a wśród nich: metody wyznaczania rozkładu a priori dla prawdopodobieństwa sukcesu w rozkładzie dwumianowym, metody wyznaczania rozkładu a priori dla populacji o rozkładzie normalnym i rozkłady wielomianowe oraz metody nieparametryczne. Przedstawiono także grupowe wyznaczenie rozkładu a priori.

Prior distribution elicitation is the basic requirement of the Bayesian statistical inference. If there is prior knowledge about a particular problem, then it is necessary to "translate" it into the form of probabilistic distribution. The paper describes the most important ways of prior elicitation basing on the expert's knowledge. The parametric approach was presented, in which it is assumed that the prior distribution can be described using some predetermined class of distributions. The non-parametric approach in turn does not assume any restrictions on the form of the prior. The topic of group prior elicitation was also mentioned. (original abstract)
