Intcp:intercept; t: time; Stu-Level: student-level; Sch-Level: school-level; Var(R): variance of time-level residual; BLR: Bayesian Linear Regression; AGDP: aggregated data-dependent prior; PP: power prior; BDB: Bayesian dynamic borrowing; IG: inverse-gamma prior for time-level variance of the joint prior distribution, which determines the degree of time-level borrowing; W2: Wishart prior with weak borrowing for student-level (the former) or school-level (the latter) precision matrix (results were converted back the covariance matrix); W20: Wishart prior with strong borrowing for student-level (the former) or school-level (the latter) precision matrix (results were converted back the covariance matrix); CP: commensurate prior
