Dear all,
I have a question concerning my output of the dunn.test function in R. I
like to compare different datasets, which are not distributed normally, so
I use the Dunn.test to do pairwise comparison. I have 2 questions
concerning the output:
- why are my groupnames changed, the output gives 4 times swirskii,
although my groupnames are longer (see my dataset)
- secondly when I check the p-values, I see something very odd: I see that
p values where the same groups are compared sometimes indicate that they
are different, why are not all those p-values = 1 ?
This is my dataset:
structure(list(controle = c(111, 88, 216, 169), chemie = c(47, 31, 35,
30), IPM = c(0, 0, 0, 1), gallicus = c(102, 152, 102, 75), swirskii3 =
c(1, 0, 0, 0), swirskiiA = c(0, 0, 1, 3), swirskiiP = c(0, 0, 1, 6),
swirskii1x = c(12, 2, 75, 46)), .Names = c("controle", "chemie", "IPM",
"gallicus", "swirskii3", "swirskiiA", "swirskiiP", "swirskii1x"),
row.names = c(NA, 4L), class = "data.frame")
I get the following output:
DUNN <- dunn.test(value, variable, method = "none",kw=TRUE)
Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test
data: value and variable
Kruskal-Wallis chi-squared = 26.8894, df = 7, p-value = 0
Comparison of value by variable
(No adjustment)
