Hello, I would like to apply survey weights with brms in such a way that standard errors are estimated correctly. To achieve this, I’m trying to replicate the approach showed in this post by @JimBob - that is, dividing …

Hi everyone! This is my first Stan Discourse post, so I apologize in advance for anything I may have missed. I’m working with a bunch of ordinal response variables (for this example I’m using Angela Merkel’s favorabilit…

I am working on using STAN to implement a multilevel regression model on repeated measures survey data but the catch is that there are two auxiliary variables and not everyone was measured at every time. Basically, I’m c…
