Dear colleagues,
How can I do to "relevel" the intercept? I need that the treatment "Db" be the intercept, and have p-values for the comparisons with the others treatments. I used the function "relevel" but it did not work out to have what I want. Thanks for your help, Xavier T1 <- read.table(file.choose(), h=T) > head(T1) treatment replicate Time Ebcg 1 CHA0+Db 1 1 9681172 2 CHA0+Db 2 1 5599000 3 CHA0+Db 3 1 10280480 4 CHA0+Db 4 1 1004526 5 CHA0+Db 5 1 12942018 6 CHA0+Db 6 1 7478773 > attach(T1) > summary(T1) treatment replicate Time Ebcg CHA0 :6 Min. :1.000 Min. :1 Min. : 0 CHA0+Db:9 1st Qu.:2.750 1st Qu.:1 1st Qu.: 1000922 Db :9 Median :4.500 Median :1 Median : 4044094 Healthy:9 Mean :4.625 Mean :1 Mean : 5699717 PCL :6 3rd Qu.:6.250 3rd Qu.:1 3rd Qu.: 7785782 PCL+Db :9 Max. :9.000 Max. :1 Max. :24736254 > hist(Ebcg) > treatment<-relevel(treatment,ref="Db") > mT1<-lm(sqrt(Ebcg)~treatment,data=T1) > summary(mT1) Call: lm(formula = sqrt(Ebcg) ~ treatment, data = T1) Residuals: Min 1Q Median 3Q Max -1748.12 -540.19 0.97 545.14 1949.22 Coefficients: Estimate Std.
