Instance of separation?

Yeah, from what I can tell there’s nothing out of the ordinary in terms of convergence. There were a total of less than 40 reported divergences out of the 2000 used in the final distribution, but that shouldn’t lead to extremely biased inference right?

Further, the Rhat for all parameters was between 0.99 and 1.01 and the minimum effective sample size across all parameters was around 350. The BFMI was 0.9683649816013548, but I’m not sure what this parameter is (I’m assuming it should be near 1).

I’m not sure what the khat of the loo is, but here is the LOO output for the model/trace

LOO_r(LOO=121805.38669244738, LOO_se=626.8930392116976, p_LOO=11.25017988102627, shape_warn=0)

Do you agree with my conclusion about approximate convergence?
