bayesmeta: Bayesian Random-Effects Meta-Analysis and Meta-Regression

A collection of functions allowing to derive the posterior distribution of the model parameters in random-effects meta-analysis or meta-regression, and providing functionality to evaluate joint and marginal posterior probability distributions, predictive distributions, shrinkage effects, posterior predictive p-values, etc.; For more details, see also Roever C (2020) <doi:10.18637/jss.v093.i06>, or Roever C and Friede T (2022) <doi:10.1016/j.cmpb.2022.107303>.
