Hi, I am a beginner with statistics and R and have no clue on how to model my data. I have collected information on seed traps (ID) that includes the habitat type (Hab) and different measures of distances. Also I have applied a modularity analysis, so that the seeds traps are grouped into modules. My dataset is as follow:
*ID Hab Module DistEdge MeanDist1 MeanDist2 MeanDist3 F48 F A 21.768 24.941 6.033 27.642 F50 F E 35.666** 60.505 149.927 * * 48.582 F52 F B** 12.243** 103.041 72.908 * * 102.375 N02 N B ** 58.681** 129.59 127.344 * * 131.383 N17 N B** 62.829** 72.827 ** 76.736 * * 77.644 N22 N B** 89.207** 78.719 ** 75.005 * * 81.176N33 N A** 23.288** 35.48 ** 25.317 * * 36.931 N40 N B** 36.734** 62.234 ** 30.68 * * 61.885 N47 N E ** 60.443** 66.367 ** 150.892 ** 55.097 * I am looking for a way to analyze if there is any correlation between the Module classification and the other variables. My difficulties here are: 1 - is there a way to model my data where Module is the response variable (something like Module~Hab*DistEdge*MeanDist1) ? If so, which model should I use (I only have a bit of experience with glm) and which distribution? 2 - Is that a problem if I have different types of predictor variable (factor and numerical)? Any help would be greatly appreciated, -- Jessica Lavabre-Micas [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
