Try this: set.seed(5) n <- 20 x <- rnorm(n) y1 <- 2 * x + rnorm(n) y2 <- 2 * x + rnorm(n) y3 <- 4 * x + rnorm(n) # Slopes approximately equal slope.com(x = c(x, x), y = c(y1, y2), groups = rep(c(1,2), each = n)) #$p #[1] 0.4498037 # Slopes of 2 and 4 slope.com(x = c(x, x), y = c(y1, y3), groups = rep(c(1,2), each = n)) #$p #[1] 0.0003850332 Cheers, Kevin ------------------------------------------------- Kevin M.
