A tutorial on Bayesian model averaging for exponential random graph models
Abstract The use of exponential random graph models (ERGMs) is becoming prevalent in psychology due to their ability to explain and predict the formation of edges between vertices in a network. Valid inference with ERGMs requires correctly specifying endogenous and exogenous effects as network statistics, guided by theory, to represent the network ...

A Bayes factor framework for unified parameter estimation and hypothesis testing
Abstract The Bayes factor, the data‐based updating factor of the prior to posterior odds of two hypotheses, is a natural measure of statistical evidence for one hypothesis over the other. We show how Bayes factors can also be used for parameter estimation.

Identifiability conditions in cognitive diagnosis: Implications for Q‐matrix estimation algorithms
Abstract The Q‐matrix of a cognitively diagnostic assessment (CDA), documenting the item‐attribute associations, is a key component of any CDA. However, the true Q‐matrix underlying a CDA is never known and must be estimated—typically by content experts.

Idiographic interrater reliability measures for intensive longitudinal multirater data
Abstract Interrater reliability plays a crucial role in various areas of psychology. In this article, we propose a multilevel latent time series model for intensive longitudinal data with structurally different raters (e.g., self‐reports and partner reports).

Power priors for latent variable mediation models under small sample sizes
Abstract Latent variable models typically require large sample sizes for acceptable efficiency and reliable convergence. Appropriate informative priors are often required for gainfully employing Bayesian analysis with small samples. Power priors are informative priors built on historical data, weighted to account for non‐exchangeability with the ...

Abstract Hidden Markov diagnostic classification models capture how students' cognitive attributes evolve over time. This paper introduces a Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for diagnostic classification models that jointly estimates time‐varying Q matrices, latent attributes, item parameters, attribute class proportions and transition ...
