Hi All, Does anybody know why the DIC function is disallowed when using a Student likelihood function with stochastic degrees of freedom? More specifically, I am trying to use a student likelihood function with normal mean, gamma distributed precision, and uniform degrees of freedom but I get a greyed out DIC function. It all seems to work out as soon as I eliminate the prior for the degrees of freedom and assign a fixed value. Once again, thank you all for your kind suggestions. Cheers, Enrique Cuervo Guzmán.
