\arguments{
\item{x}{A \code{stanreg} or \code{brmsfit} model, or a vector representing a posterior distribution.}

\item{...}{Currently not used.}

\item{ci}{Value or vector of probability of the CI (between 0 and 1)
to be estimated. Default to \code{.89} (89\%) for Bayesian models and \code{.95} (95\%) for frequentist models.}

\item{method}{Can be \link[=eti]{'ETI'} (default), \link[=hdi]{'HDI'} or \link[=si]{'SI'}.}

\item{verbose}{Toggle off warnings.}

\item{BF}{The amount of support required to be included in the support interval.}

\item{effects}{Should results for fixed effects, random effects or both be returned?
Only applies to mixed models. May be abbreviated.}

\item{parameters}{Regular expression pattern that describes the parameters that
should be returned. Meta-parameters (like \code{lp__} or \code{prior_}) are
filtered by default, so only parameters that typically appear in the
\code{summary()} are returned. Use \code{parameters} to select specific parameters
for the output.}

\item{component}{Should results for all parameters, parameters for the conditional model
or the zero-inflated part of the model be returned? May be abbreviated. Only
applies to \pkg{brms}-models.}
}
\value{
A data frame with following columns:
  \itemize{
    \item \code{Parameter} The model parameter(s), if \code{x} is a model-object. If \code{x} is a vector, this column is missing.
    \item \code{CI} The probability of the credible interval.
    \item \code{CI_low}, \code{CI_high} The lower and upper credible interval limits for the parameters.
  }

\note{
When it comes to interpretation, we recommend thinking of the CI in terms of
  an "uncertainty" or "compatibility" interval, the latter being defined as
  \dQuote{Given any value in the interval and the background assumptions,
  the data should not seem very surprising} (\cite{Gelman & Greenland 2019}).
