While developing a prior distribution for any Bayesian analysis, it is important to check whether the corresponding posterior distribution becomes degenerate in the limit to the true parameter value as the sample size increases. In the same vein, it is also important to understand a more detailed asymptotic behavior of posterior distributions. This is particularly relevant in the development of many nonsubjective priors. The present paper focuses on asymptotic expansions of posteriors for generalized linear models with canonical link functions when the number of regressors grows to infinity at a certain rate relative to the growth of the sample size. These expansions are then used to derive moment matching priors in the generalized linear model setting.
