bvarnet 1.0.3

  • Minor bugfix that let to an error when running a model without covariates.
  • extract_draws() now accepts several parameters at once.
  • Minor documentation fixes
  • Bugfix: Removing order constrained from adjacent category model.

bvarnet 1.0.2

CRAN release: 2026-08-31

New features

Bug fixes affecting results

  • Fixed automatic scaling of Gaussian default priors and related misscalulation of BFs
  • Fixed that extract_random_effects(what = "mean_u") and what = "draws_u" returned scrambled subject estimates and RE mislabeling in mixed-family fits.
  • Change default CI to 95% and introduce argument to vary CI width.

Other changes

  • Defined the %||% operator internally.
  • print() now reports the effective scale of default Gaussian priors, which are widened by the outcome SD before reaching Stan. Previously this scaling was invisible.
  • Minor bug and documentation fixes.
  • bvar() gains ..., forwarding additional arguments (e.g. init, refresh, thin, step_size) to CmdStanR’s $sample() method.
  • Added a safeguard against duplicated (id, time) rows, which previously produced an ambiguous, silently-contaminated lag design; these now error with guidance to deduplicate or aggregate.
  • time_col must now be integer-valued (one time unit = one lag step).
