edstan Streamlines the fitting of common Bayesian item response models using Stan.
Maintainer: Daniel C. Furr danielcfurr@gmail.com
A typical workflow in fitting a model using edstan involves the following sequence:
irt_data to format the data,
irt_stan to fit a model,
stan_columns_plot to view sampling diagnostics, and
print_irt_stan to view parameter summaries.
The package includes six Stan item response models
(see irt_stan for a list) and two example datasets
(aggression and spelling). It is expected that
once that a user is comfortable utilizing the preceding workflow with the
predefined edstan models, they will go on to write their own Stan
models.
