Sintesi	The Bayesian Fisher's exact test evaluates independence between two categorical variables in a 2x2 table by computing a Bayes factor rather than a p-value. Using conjugate priors on cell probabilities — most commonly the Gunel-Dickey framework — it quantifies how much the observed data favor an association model over an independence model, providing a continuous scale of evidence in both directions.	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.
