The bias indicates the difference between the simulated parameter value and the estimated value by each of the models. The coverage is calculated by the percentage of times the true simulated values falls in the credible interval of each simulation.

Simulated values of the parameters: α = 1, β 1 = 1, β 2 = 0.3, β 3 = 0.1, β 4 = 0.1, γ = −2.
