		Capability-Ecological Developmental Model (CEDM) Analysis //
		Implements the Capability-Ecological Developmental Model (CEDM)
		for longitudinal and multilevel data. The package supports
		estimation and interpretation of models examining how
		socioeconomic status (SES), health indicators, and contextual
		factors jointly relate to academic outcomes. Functionality
		includes: (1) classification of ecological capability regimes
		(amplifying, neutral, compensatory); (2) estimation of
		moderated multilevel models with higher-order interaction
		terms; (3) causal mediation analysis using doubly robust
		estimation; (4) random-effects within-between (REWB)
		decomposition; (5) nonlinear moderation using restricted cubic
		splines; (6) clustering of longitudinal health trajectories;
		and (7) sensitivity analysis using the impact threshold for a
		confounding variable (ITCV) and robustness-to-replacement (RIR)
		measures. The package is designed for use with general
		longitudinal multilevel datasets.
