I am a novice R user, and I am having difficulty understanding R's influence plots.
I am trying to remove outliers from a particular variable, "sib." I am able to generate influence plots and further outlier information such as below (which is a shortened example). For my analyses, I end up excluding the points R refers to, 7, 18, 26, and 105. However, my question is, how can I understand which ID numbers these points (7,18,26, and 105) are referring to? These numbers, 7,18, 26. and 105, are definitely not my study ID numbers. > Myoutput<-aov(sib~newgroup1, data=Study1) > influencePlot(Myoutput) [1] 7 18 26 105 > influence.measures(Myoutput) Influence measures of aov(formula = sib ~ newgroup1, data = Study1) : dfb.1_ dfb.nw12 dfb.nw13 dfb.nw14 dfb.nw15 dffit cov.r cook.d hat inf 33 1.70e-01 -1.33e-01 -1.53e-01 -1.56e-01 -1.52e-01 0.170405 1.124 5.83e-03 0.0909 * 34 7.79e-02 -6.07e-02 -7.00e-02 -7.14e-02 -6.94e-02 0.077934 1.131 1.22e-03 0.0909 * 35 1.47e-01 -1.15e-01 -1.32e-01 -1.35e-01 -1.31e-01 0.147268 1.126 4.36e-03 0.0909 * 36 6.64e-02 -5.17e-02 -5.96e-02 -6.08e-02 -5.91e-02 0.066386 1.132 8.86e-04 0.0909 * 37 -3.15e-01 2.46e-01 2.83e-01 2.89e-01 2.81e-01 -0.315448 1.100 1.99e-02 0.0909 * 38 1.47e-01 -1.15e-01 -1.32e-01 -1.35e-01 -1.31e-01 0.147268 1.126 4.36e-03 0.0909 * 39 -9.26e-01 7.22e-01 8.32e-01 8.48e-01 8.24e-01 -0.926059 0.882 1.64e-01 0.0909 * -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Using-influence-plots-and-obtaining-id-numbers-tp4339144p4339144.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list 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.
