Sintesi	Multilevel Bayesian inference combines Bayesian probability with hierarchical data structures, treating group-level parameters as drawn from a common population distribution. It simultaneously estimates unit-level effects and the hyperparameters governing their variation, propagating full uncertainty through every level of the hierarchy via posterior sampling.	Hierarchical Bayesian inference is a probabilistic modeling framework that organises parameters into levels, placing priors on the group-level parameters and hyperpriors on the parameters governing those priors. It enables partial pooling of information across groups, balancing the extremes of treating each group as independent or merging them into a single estimate.
