Content for learning exploratory factor analysis in Stan?

[mike-lawrence]

EFA is something I’m not as familiar with, but need for a new project, so I thought I’d see if folks have any good case studies, etc, using Stan they could point me to. I found a older case study, but wonder if there’s anything more recent I should check out too.

There is this one Probabilistic Factor Analysis Methods from 2017 that I bookmarked back in the day. Not sure if that’s what you are looking for.

I swore I read a more recent one but I can’t find it.

It looks like this may be it?

Fitting a Bayesian Factor Analysis Model in Stan

I learned about Stan a couple days ago. I’m using R version 4.0.2 and RStudio 1.3.1056 on macOS Catalina version 10.15.6. I have installed the rstan package version 2.21.2. Issue I want to reproduce the results from a GitHub page dated from 2015 and titled " Fitting a Bayesian Factor Analysis Model in Stan" (found here). The authors have supplied code, but some of the code does not work on my machine. data { int<lower=1> N; // number of int<lower=1> P; // n…

Someone updated the 2015 version you linked too.

There was another one I think by a Stan econ person. I totally need to get all my models and references in better order for searching for stuff like this.
