In this paper, a highly effective slice samplingalgorithm is proposed to estimate the graded response model that has been widely used in educational psychological assessments. The new algorithm not only avoids the Metroplis-hastingsalgorithm boring adjustment the turning parameters to achieve an appropriate acceptance probability, but also overcomes the dependence of the traditional Gibbs samplingalgorithm on the conjugate prior distribution. Three simulation studies are conducted and a detailed analysis of sexual compulsivity scale (SCS) data is carried out to further illustrate the proposed methodology.
