Modelling scale effects via a Bayesian approach: an application to decision making in public sector

Abstract
- We present a Bayesian approach for the analysis of rating data when a scaling component is taken into account. Model-based probability effect measures for comparing distributions of several groups, adjusted for explanatory variables affecting both location and scale components, are computed. Markov Chain Monte Carlo techniques are implemented to obtain parameter estimates and the mentioned measures. An analysis on students’ evaluation of a university orientation service is carried out to assess the performance of the method and make more valuable the decision making process of university players (stakeholders).
