I am trying to do a MAP estimation of the model below, which comes from the literature in non-Bayesian form ($y = \Phi(\frac{1}{\alpha} * log(A/\beta)$). Because the model uses the function $\Phi$, the outcome of the model is in the range $0-1$. My observations are bound to the same range. However, using a Gaussian distribution for the likelihood means that the uncertainty bounds are sometimes outside the $0-1$ range (see Figure below). Statistically speaking, is this a problem, and if so, what would be a better solution? $R_i \sim \mathcal{N}(\mu,\sigma)$ $\mu_i = \Phi \Bigg(\frac{1}{\alpha} * log(A/\beta) \Bigg)$ $\alpha \sim \mathcal{N}(0.35, 0.1) $ $\beta\sim \mathcal{N}(70, 10) $ $\sigma \sim \mathcal{U}(0, 0.3) $ [![Bayesian parameter estimation][1]][1] [1]: https://i.sstatic.net/tFdIq.png
