Sintesi	The Bayesian Wilcoxon signed-rank test is a Bayesian nonparametric method for comparing two paired or related samples. Rather than returning a single p-value, it produces posterior probabilities that one condition is better, practically equivalent, or worse than the other, enabling richer and more interpretable inference for paired continuous or ordinal data without assuming normality.	The Bayesian Mann-Whitney U test is a nonparametric Bayesian procedure for comparing two independent groups when data are ordinal or non-normal continuous. Instead of a binary reject/fail-to-reject decision, it quantifies the relative evidence for the null and alternative hypotheses through a Bayes factor, allowing researchers to conclude in favour of either hypothesis or express uncertainty.
