Hi Abby and David, Thanks for the useful tips! I will check those.
I completed the regression analysis in plink (as R would be very slow for my sample size) but as I mentioned I need to determine the influence of a specific covariate in my results and Plink is of no help there. I did Pearson correlation analysis for P values which I got in regression with and without my covariate of interest and I got this: > cor.test(tt$P_TD, tt$P_noTD, method = "pearson", conf.level = 0.95) Pearson's product-moment correlation data: tt$P_TD and tt$P_noTD t = 20.17, df = 283, p-value < 2.2e-16 alternative hypothesis: true correlation is not equal to 0 95 percent confidence interval: 0.7156134 0.8117108 sample estimates: cor 0.7679493 I can see the p values are very correlated in those two instances. Can I conclude that my covariate then doesn't have a huge effect or what kind of conclusion I can draw from that?
