The "Data" sheet contains the data used for the analysis, and the "Notes_rows_names" sheet provides additional notes related to the "Data" sheet.
Before getting started, please ensure that you have installed "RStan." For instructions, refer to the webpage at: https://github.com/stan-dev/rstan/wiki/RStan-Getting-Started.
Running Bayesian SSD models using the R package “rstan” can be challenging due to compatibility issues with different versions of R and related R packages.
For your information, we have run the SSD models using the following configurations:
- R version 3.6.3
- R package "rstan" version 2.21.2
- R package "loo" version 2.5.1
To proceed, please refer to the R code file "SSDmodeling_Fullmodel_v1.r" for further instructions and implementation details.
