Samenvatting	Bayesian inference is a statistical framework using Bayes' theorem to update beliefs about parameters or hypotheses as data accumulate. Published posthumously in 1763, Thomas Bayes' work lay dormant until the 20th century, when computational advances (Gibbs sampling, Markov Chain Monte Carlo) made Bayesian methods practical. Unlike frequentist inference (which treats parameters as fixed unknowns), Bayesian analysis treats parameters as random variables with probability distributions, enabling direct probability statements about parameters, incorporation of prior knowledge, and sequential updating. Essential in precision medicine, adaptive trials, complex hierarchical models, and any context where prior information enriches inference.	Logistic regression is a statistical method for modeling the probability of a binary outcome (disease present/absent, success/failure) as a function of continuous and categorical predictors. Developed by David Roxbee Cox (1958), it solves the problem of predicting categorical outcomes by applying a logistic transformation to constrain predictions to the [0,1] probability interval, enabling accurate risk stratification, diagnostic prediction, and causal inference in epidemiology, medicine, and social science.	Multilevel modeling (also called hierarchical linear modeling, mixed-effects modeling) is a statistical framework for analyzing data organized in nested or clustered structures—students within schools, patients within hospitals, repeated measures within individuals. Developed by Bryk and Raudenbush (1992), it accounts for dependency among observations and partitions variance into levels (within-cluster and between-cluster), enabling valid inference and revealing context effects. Essential in education, medicine, organizational research, and any field where data have natural hierarchies.
