Survey data, simulation data, and Python codes for building a Bayesian hierarchical hypothesis testing model in a maturity assessment study

This supplementary material involves survey data and Python codes that prescribe Bayesian hypothesis testing applications in a scientific study. The simulation data has been generated by Markov Chain Monte Carlo analysis to test the Bayesian mean differences between the process improvement practitioner and non-practitioner companies over the procurement maturity dimensions. It will be more tractable when you first read the paper and then run the codes by yourself. Here, is the reference: Coşkun, S. S., & Kazan, H. (2023).
