Hi - I’m using rstanarm and stan_glmer to run a a multilevel beta regression, but I can’t work out how to set a prior for phi. In the stan_betareg function you can specify prior_phi, but that doesn’t seem to be the case for the stan_glmer with family=mgcv::betar instance. In addition - I can’t work…

Specify prior for phi for multilevel beta regression in stan_glmer

@lauren Here’s a solution for that error: Rstanarm: mgcv::betar family
