Abstract
The Bayesian literature has shown that the Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) algorithm is powerful and efficient for statistical model estimation, especially for complicated models. Stan, a software program built upon HMC, has been introduced as a means of psychometric modeling estimation. However, there are no systemic guidelines for implementing Stan with the log-linear cognitive diagnosis model (LCDM), which is the saturated version of many cognitive diagnostic model (CDM) variants. This article bridges the gap between Stan application and Bayesian LCDM estimation: Both the modeling procedures and Stan code are demonstrated in detail, such that this strategy can be extended to other CDMs straightforwardly.
