Abstract

In this rejoinder, we suggest that Professor Tweney's commentary on our article not only contains stark mischaracterizations of our analysis, but is rife with misunderstandings of basic quantitative theory, and loose, unfounded speculations. We conclude, in short, that it makes no contribution to the clarification of the phenomenon of regression towards the mean.
