generateDensityFromPriorPar function

(Internal) Convert prior parameters to distribution densities

generateDensityFromPriorPar is an internal function for converting prior parameters to distribution densities.

generateDensityFromPriorPar(config_theta, theta_q)

Arguments

• config_theta: a list containing theta estimation configurations.
• theta_q: a list containing all quadrature points.

Returns

parsePriorParameters returns a named list containing:

• prior_dist: the type of distribution. One of NORMAL, UNIFORM, RAW.
• prior_par: an examinee-wise list containing prior parameters.
