Abstract

This paper provides a general overview of (Bayesian Confirmatory Factor Analysis) with mixed ordinal and binary data. Mixed variables with specific cut-points are used and the simulation (Gibbs sampling) of the Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) as an estimation tool. The problem of qualitative data is handled using censoring methods with specific cut points. Some additional tools, which contain on the Bayesian estimator, standard deviations (SD), Markov chain error (MC error) and highest posterior density (HPD) interval, are interpreted. The developed approach is discussed with the findings derived from the OpenBUGS program using the information on the quality of life (QOL)
