I've had occasion to talk with a number of educator types lately, at different
application and responsibility levels of primary & secondary Ed.
Only one recalled the term, regression toward the mean. Some (granted,
the less analytically minded) vehemently denied that such could be causing

Hi, Brett. I don't understand this statement. Looks to me like an
obvious place to apply multilevel

I have a sample set of series of state-changes/events/behaviors, from this
sample I'd like to generalize a scoring method for the likelihood of a
criterion behavior on other data sets.
Could someone guide me to the appropriate statistical technique for this
type of problem and any useful resources

this is not unlike having scores for students in a class ... one score for
each student and ... the age of the teacher of THOSE students ... for a
class ... scores will vary but, age for the teacher remains the same ...
but the age might be different in ANother class with a different teacher

I am agreeing, disagreeing, or just rambling on.

A colleague has a data set with a structure like the one below:
ID X1 X2 Y

4 2 1.200.25
5 2 1.100.25
6 3 0.900.30
7 4 0.500.50

Significance tests for 2x2 tables require that the single observed
table be regarded as if it were, (under the null hypothesis of
"uniformity" or "independence") but a single instance drawn at
random from a universe of replicates. Insofar as there are at
least three well-known distinct such
