Hello John, As you said, I could also take a means model and test linear hypothesis for the desired effects - would this also be the case for the repeated measure i did in the first place. I copied the model from the car model where you first call:
> modx<-lm(cbind(div_h, div_l) ~ site, divrep) (?Could I test linear hypothesis here, instead of continuing as I did beneath) > idat cover 1 high 2 low > (av.ok1 <- Anova(modx, idata=idat, idesign=~cover)) Type II Repeated Measures MANOVA Tests: Pillai test statistic Df test stat approx F num Df den Df Pr(>F) site 1 0.49908 9.9631 1 10 0.010220 * cover 1 0.28145 3.9169 1 10 0.075984 . site:cover 1 0.53963 11.7216 1 10 0.006507 ** --- Signif. codes: 0 ‘***’ 0.001 ‘**’ 0.01 ‘*’ 0.05 ‘.’ 0.1 ‘ ’ 1 > divrep repl. site div_h div_l 1 1 Scrub 4.18 5.23 2 2 Scrub 5.47 7.18 3 3 Scrub 3.74 4.97 4 4 Scrub 2.62 5.17 5 5 Scrub 3.33 6.43 6 6 Scrub 1.62 8.96 7 1 Tall_Forb 4.70 3.88 8 2 Tall_Forb 3.65 1.97 9 3 Tall_Forb 2.50 1.19 10 4 Tall_Forb 1.87 2.37 11 5 Tall_Forb 5.33 3.56 12 6 Tall_Forb 3.06 3.60 Your answers helped a lot - Thank you very much for the quick reply!
