The claim that patients with schizophrenia lack sensorimotor facilitation proposed in Sevos et al. (2016) is based upon two non-significant effects reported in Experiments 1 and 2, which is problematic since the traditional null-hypothesis testing approach does not allow one to "accept" a null hypothesis. We develop a Bayesian analysis of these two results and argue that, at present, there is not much support for the null effects reported in the original study.
