\section{Priors and posteriors}

\begin{frame}{From prior to posterior}
  Bayes' rule updates belief in parameters $\theta$ after seeing data $y$:
  \[
    p(\theta \mid y) = \frac{p(y \mid \theta)\, p(\theta)}{p(y)}
  \]
  \begin{itemize}
    \item The prior $p(\theta)$ encodes what is plausible before the experiment.
    \item The likelihood $p(y \mid \theta)$ scores how well parameters explain the data.
    \item Weakly informative priors regularize without dominating the evidence.
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\section{Computation in practice}

\begin{frame}{Making it computable}
  Posteriors rarely have closed forms, so we sample from them.
  \begin{itemize}
    \item Markov chain Monte Carlo draws correlated samples whose long-run
          distribution is the posterior.
    \item Diagnostics before trust: $\widehat{R}$ near 1, healthy effective
          sample size, and no divergent transitions.
    \item Posterior predictive checks compare simulated replicates to the
          observed data.
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}{Before next session}
  \begin{itemize}
    \item Exercise: refit the reaction-time model with a Student-t likelihood.
    \item Reading: chapter 5 of the workshop notes, on hierarchical models.
    \item Bring one dataset from your own work for Thursday's lab.
  \end{itemize}
