Tensions between cosmological measurements by different surveys or probes have always been important —and are presently much discussed —as they may lead to evidence of new physics. Several tests have been devised to probe the consistency of datasets given a cosmological model, but they often have undesired features such as dependence on the prior volume, or burdensome requirements such as that of near-Gaussian posterior distributions. We propose a new quantity, defined in a similar way as the Bayesian evidence ratio, in which these undesired properties are absent. We test the quantity on simple models with Gaussian and non-Gaussian likelihoods. We then apply it to data from the Planck satellite: we investigate the consistency of ΛCDM model parameters obtained from TT and EE angular power spectrum measurements, as well as the mutual consistency of cosmological parameters obtained from large scale (multipoles, ℓ<1000) and small scale (ℓ ⩾ 1000) portions of each measurement and find no significant discrepancy in the six-dimensional ΛCDM parameter space.
