[R] R capabilities: Bayesian estimation, Covariance Structure Analysis
I'm contemplating doing Bayesian estimation in R but am wondering how Bayesian estimation on R stacks up against BUGS. Is R reasonably complete, more difficult to use,...? Anyone care to share their experience? Also, am I right to conclude that covariance structure analysis & confirmatory factor analysis are not available in R? (I can't find them with help) Peter

(I can't find them >with help)I believe that the sem package does these. In general, a lot of things are in contributed packages, so "help" is not the way to find out about R's ultimate capabilities. My site (below) lets you search the packages as well as the r-help news. -- Jonathan Baron, Professor of Psychology, University of Pennsylvania Home page: http://www.sas.upenn.edu/~baron R page: http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/
