  • $\begingroup$ Posts that ask, in effect, "How do I perform regression?" or "How do I crossvalidate findings?" are so broad that they are unfortunately not a good fit for this site. It sounds as if you would benefit from extensive reading and/or from time spent with a mentor or consultant. $\endgroup$ Commented Jan 22, 2013 at 15:35

    $\begingroup$ In light of @rolando2's comment, it may be more helpful to try what you can, & then ask a series of well-focused questions about the places where you're stuck (assuming those issues haven't already been covered elsewhere on CV). For each question, you would state what you've done thus far, where you're stuck, & what you understand about that issue based on your own study of statistics. $\endgroup$ Commented Jan 22, 2013 at 17:20
