What am I working on?

One goal of my PhD project is to do Bayesian inference using all kinds of models that are
popular in psychology.

Another goal of the project is to implement and study Bayesian hypothesis testing for
hierarchical, possibly order-restricted models. In hierarchical modeling, individual-level parameters
are drawn from a group distribution. This way of modeling takes both differences and similarities
between participants into account.

In general, the aim is to try to make Bayesian methods more easily available to empirically
oriented psychologists that would like to take advantage of the Bayesian methodology but lack the
time or the technical skills to implement their own software.
