A Heterogeneous Bayesian Regression Model for Cross-Sectional Data Involving a Single Observation per Response Unit

Multiple regression is frequently used across the various social sciences to analyze cross-sectional data. However, it can often times be challenging to justify the assumption of common regression coefficients across all respondents. This manuscript presents a heterogeneous Bayesian regression model that enables the estimation of individual-level-regression coefficients in cross-sectional data involving a "single" observation per response unit. A Gibbs sampling algorithm is developed to implement the proposed Bayesian methodology. A Monte Carlo simulation study is constructed to assess the performance of the proposed methodology across a number of experimental factors. We then apply the proposed method to analyze data collected from a consumer psychology study that examines the differential importance of price and quality in determining perceived value evaluations.
