Sintesi	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.	Bayesian Analysis of Covariance (Bayesian ANCOVA) extends classical ANCOVA by placing prior distributions on group effects and covariate slopes, then updating them with observed data to obtain posterior distributions and Bayes factors. It quantifies evidence for group differences on a continuous outcome after statistically adjusting for one or more continuous covariates, without relying on p-value thresholds.
