N2 - Experimental data obtained for the polarized Bjorken sum rule (BSR) Γ1p-n(Q2) are fitted by using predictions derived within a truncated operator product expansion (OPE) approach to QCD. Four QCD versions are considered: perturbative QCD (pQCD) in the MS ¯ scheme, Analytic Perturbation Theory (APT), and 2δ and 3δ analytic QCD versions. In contrast to pQCD, these QCD variants do not have Landau singularities at low positive Q2, which facilitates the fitting procedure significantly. The fitting procedure is applied first to the experimental data of the inelastic part of BSR, and the known elastic contributions are added after the fitting. In general, when 2δ and 3δ QCD coupling is used the fitted curves give the best results, within the Q2-range of the fit as well as in extended Q2-intervals. When the fitting procedure is applied to the total BSR, i.e., to the sum of the experimental data and the elastic contribution, the quality of the results deteriorates significantly.
