  • Once data is scaled in this way, [Gelman et al. (2008)] and Gelman again in [Stan Prior Choice Guidance](https://github.com/stan-dev/stan/wiki/Prior-Choice-Recommendations) recomend using a (scaled) Student's t distribution with $3<\nu<7$ as a weakly informative prior for the coefficients in the predictor.
