Σύνοψη	Bayesian Multivariate Analysis of Variance (Bayesian MANOVA) extends the classical MANOVA framework by replacing null-hypothesis significance testing with Bayesian inference. It uses prior distributions on multivariate group means and covariance structures, updates them with data to yield posterior distributions, and quantifies evidence through Bayes factors rather than p-values.	The Bayesian independent samples t-test quantifies evidence for or against a mean difference between two independent groups using a Bayes factor rather than a p-value. Rooted in Jeffreys's probability framework and popularized by Rouder et al. (2009), it places a Cauchy prior on the standardized effect size and returns continuous evidence for both the null and alternative hypotheses.
