Bayesian Psychometric Modeling - Roy Levy - Bog

This book presents a unified Bayesian approach across traditionally separate families of psychometric models. It shows that Bayesian techniques, as alternatives to conventional approaches, offer distinct and profound advantages in achieving many goals of psychometrics. The book covers foundational principles and statistical models as well as popular psychometric models. Throughout the text, procedures are illustrated using examples primarily from educational assessments. A supplementary website provides the datasets, WinBUGS code, R code, and Netica files used in the examples.
