Re: [R] regression with categorical nuisance variable

You may try analysis of covariance. But,as you say"There are no gender differences in age ",then why not combine 2 gender's age and ignore the gender? 2011/3/1 Jonathan DuBois > Hi, > > I am new to R, so I am unsure of the formula to set up this analysis. > I would like to run a linear model wit

Re: [R] regression with categorical nuisance variable

Usually I would caution you to convert your categorical variables to factors and make sure the contrasts are set how you want them, but in this case it doesn't matter because there are (I assume) only two le

[R] regression with categorical nuisance variable

Hi, I am new to R, so I am unsure of the formula to set up this analysis. I would like to run a linear model with a continuous dependent variable (brain volume) and a continuous independent variable (age) while controlling for a categorical nuisance variable (gender). Age and brain volume are cor
