regtomean - Regression Toward the Mean
In repeated measures studies with extreme large or small
values it is common that the subjects measurements on average
are closer to the mean of the basic population. Interpreting
possible changes in the mean in such situations can lead to
biased results since the values were not randomly selected,
they come from truncated sampling. This method allows to
estimate the range of means where treatment effects are likely
to occur when regression toward the mean is present. Ostermann,

would like to acknowledge "Lena Roth" and "Nico Steckhan" for
the package's initial updates (Q3 2024) and continued
supervision and guidance. Both have contributed to discussing
and integrating these methods into the package, ensuring they
are up-to-date and contextually relevant.
