bin2norm: Hierarchical Probit Estimation for Dichotomized Data

Provides likelihood-based and hierarchical estimation methods for thresholded (binomial-probit) data. Supports fixed-mean and random-mean models with maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), generalized linear mixed model (GLMM), and Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) implementations. For methodological background, see Albert and Chib (1993) <doi:10.1080/01621459.1993.10476321> and McCulloch (1994) <doi:10.2307/2297959>.
