The phrase "el análisis de regresión" derives from Spanish, where "análisis" means analysis and "regresión" means regression, a term borrowed from Latin 'regressio', meaning 'a going back'. The statistical concept was developed in the late 19th century to describe the tendency of data points to revert toward a mean, hence the name.
