Political Science Computational Laboratory

Description

pscl is an R package providing classes, methods and test data for

  • Bayesian analysis of roll call data and other binary, item-response type data (e.g., from surveys or educational testing).

  • elementary Bayesian statistics

  • maximum likelihood estimation of zero-inflated and hurdle models for count data

  • utility functions

Historical note

The Political Science Computational Laboratory was the name of Simon Jackman's research group at Stanford University's Department of Political Science (2002-2014), where this package was first developed.

The hurdle and count data models were extensively re-written and updated by Achim Zeileis and Christian Kleiber.
