Abstract in Portuguese
O problema de Inferência sobre uma proporção, amplamente divulgado na literatura estatística, ocupa papel central no desenvolvimento das várias teorias de Inferência Estatística e, invariavelmente, é objeto de investigação e discussão em estudos comparativos entre as diferentes escolas de Inferência. Ademais, a estimação de proporções, bem como teste de hipóteses para proporções, é de grande importância para as diversas áreas do conhecimento, constituindo um método quantitativo simples e universal. Nesse trabalho, é feito um estudo comparativo entre as abordagens clássica e bayesiana do problema de testar as hipóteses de ocorrência ou não de 2º turno em um cenário típico de eleição majoritária (maioria absoluta) em dois turnos no Brasil.

Abstract in English
The problem of inference about a proportion, widely explored in the statistical literature, plays a key role in the development of several theories of statistical inference and, invariably, is the object of investigation and discussion in comparative studies among different schools of inference. In addition, the estimation of proportions, as well as test of hypothesis for proportions, is very important in many areas of knowledge as it constitutes a simple and universal quantitative method. In this work a comparative study between the Classical and Bayesian approaches to the problem of testing the hypothesis of occurrence of second round (or not) in a typical scenario of a majoritarian election (absolute majority) in two rounds in Brazil is developed.
