Statistical Theories of Mental Test Scores
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a survey of test theory models and their application in the field of mental test analysis. But the focus of the survey is on test-score theories and models, and not the practical applications and limitations of each model studied.

A Bayesian Indifference Procedure
Melvin R. Novick,William J. Hall +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an indifference procedure is introduced that requires postulating what size and what kind of samples will and will not (in a special sense) permit statistical inference and prediction, e.g., one observation from a two-parameter normal model is not sufficient to permit inference about the variance but two observations are.

A Bayesian Approach to the Analysis of Data from Clinical Trials
TL;DR: In this article, a Bayesian logical probability approach is described and its advantages with respect to constructing prior distributions for Bayesian analyses are discussed, and some standard Bayesian distribution theory for categorized data is summarized.
