Sintesi	Bayesian Weighted Least Squares combines the classical WLS weighting scheme — which downweights observations with high error variance — with Bayesian prior distributions over the regression coefficients and error variance. The result is a posterior distribution that reflects both the data likelihood and prior beliefs, providing full uncertainty quantification in heteroscedastic settings.	The Bayesian fixed effects model applies Bayesian inference to the classical within-group panel estimator. Unit-specific intercepts capture time-invariant unobserved heterogeneity, while prior distributions on all parameters allow probability statements about coefficients and full uncertainty quantification via the posterior distribution.
