Bayesian Parameter Estimates(Appears only if Hierarchical Bayes is selected on the launch window.) The Bayesian Parameter Estimates report gives results for model effects. The estimates are based on a Hierarchical Bayes fit that integrates the subject-level covariates into the likelihood function and estimates their effects on the parameters directly. The subject-level covariates are estimated using a version of the algorithm described in Train (2001), which incorporates Adaptive Bayes and Metropolis-Hastings approaches. Posterior means and variances are calculated for each model effect. The algorithm also provides subject-specific estimates of the model effect parameters. See Save Subject Estimates.
