    Bayesian beta regression models: joint mean and precision modeling

    Get PDF
    This paper summarizes the beta regression models, with joint modeling of the mean and precision parameters, and the Bayesian methodology proposed by Cepeda (2001) and Cepeda and Gamenrman (2005) to fit these models. This Bayesian methodology is implemented and applied in the development of simulated and applied studies

    Bivariate beta regression models: a Bayesian approach applied to educational data

    In this paper we propose a bivariate beta regression model, de¯ning the beta distribution derived from Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern (FGM) copulas. This model could be a good alternative to analyze pairs of proportions, when they are not independent. To ¯t the proposed models we apply standard existing MCMC (Markov Chain Monte Carlo) methods to simulate samples for the joint posterior of interest, using the Bayesian methodology proposed by Cepeda and Gamerman (2001) and Cepeda and Gamerman (2005). Two examples are introduced to illustrate the proposed methodology: an example with simulated bivariate data and an example with a real data set
