Hello, I'm also working on a QSAR validation, and would like to confirm that my multiple least squares regression based on only 4 x-variables out of a pool of 300 x-variables is significant. I want to apply the y-randomization or y-scrambling permutation protocol using R, but I have not been able

That sounds like a particular form of permutation test. If the scrambling is replaced by sampling with replacement (i.e., some data points can be sampled more than once while others can be left out), that's the simple (or nonparametric) bootstrap. The goal is to generate the distribution of the
