Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. In statistics, regression toward the mean refers to the phenomenon that a variable that is extreme on its first measurement will tend to be closer to the centre of the distribution on a later measurement. To avoid making wrong inferences, the possibility of regression toward the mean must be considered when designing experiments and interpreting experimental, survey, and other empirical data in the physical, life, behavioral and social sciences. The conditions under which regression toward the mean occurs depend on the way the term is mathematically defined.
