Përmbledhja	Bayesian scale development applies Bayesian statistical inference to the construction and evaluation of psychometric scales. Rather than relying on single point estimates of item and person parameters, it produces full posterior distributions that quantify uncertainty, incorporate prior knowledge, and support principled decisions about item retention, reliability, and validity in small or complex samples.	Exploratory factor analysis reduces a large set of observed variables into a smaller number of latent common factors. It is widely used in scale development and psychometrics to uncover the dimensional structure that underlies a set of correlated items, without specifying that structure in advance.
