Hi again,

Just to clarify my question from previous email...

Example script:
A <- data[, c(1,2,3,4)]
B <- data[, c(5,6,7,8)]
library(vegan)
vare.proc <- procrustes(A,B, scale=FALSE, symmetric=FALSE)
vare.proc
summary(vare.proc)
plot(vare.proc)
#plot(vare.proc, kind=2)
residuals(vare.proc)
protest(A,B, scores = "sites", permutations = 999)


Data A and B are case scores from PCA's.

*Question*
Protest output-  'Correlation in a symmetric Procrustes rotation' comes out
as 1 for each different data I input. This does not seem correct as the
graphical output suggests otherwise as well the raw case scores show
that there is not a systematic relationship between the two series of data.
I am wondering what the reason for this is.

Thanks & kind regards,

Tara
