Abstract
In most hierarchical Bayes cases the posterior distributions are difficult to derive and cannot be obtained in closed form. In some special cases, however, it is possible to obtain the exact moments of the posterior distributions. By applying these moments and Pearson curves or Cornish-Fisher expansions to real problems, good approximations of the exact posterior distributions of individual parameter values as well as linear combinations of parameter values could easily be obtained.
