abstract: 'Fit Bayesian generalized (non-)linear multivariate multilevel models using
  ''Stan'' for full Bayesian inference. A wide range of distributions and link functions
  are supported, allowing users to fit -- among others -- linear, robust linear, count
  data, survival, response times, ordinal, zero-inflated, hurdle, and even self-defined
  mixture models all in a multilevel context. Further modeling options include both
  theory-driven and data-driven non-linear terms, auto-correlation structures, censoring
  and truncation, meta-analytic standard errors, and quite a few more. In addition,
  all parameters of the response distribution can be predicted in order to perform
  distributional regression. Prior specifications are flexible and explicitly encourage
  users to apply prior distributions that actually reflect their prior knowledge.
  Models can easily be evaluated and compared using several methods assessing posterior
  or prior predictions. References: Bürkner (2017) <https://doi.org/10.18637/jss.v080.i01>;
