Function performs Procrustes ANOVA in a phylogenetic framework and uses permutation procedures to assess statistical hypotheses describing patterns of shape variation and covariation for a set of Procrustes-aligned coordinates
procD.pgls(f1, phy, iter = 999, seed = NULL, int.first = FALSE,
effect.type = c("F", "cohen"), data = NULL, print.progress = TRUE, ...)A formula for the linear model (e.g., y ~ x1 + x2)
A phylogenetic tree of class phylo - see read.tree in library ape
Number of iterations for significance testing
An optional argument for setting the seed for random permutations of the resampling procedure. If left NULL (the default), the exact same P-values will be found for repeated runs of the analysis (with the same number of iterations). If seed = "random", a random seed will be used, and P-values will vary. One can also specify an integer for specific seed values, which might be of interest for advanced users.
A logical value to indicate if interactions of first main effects should precede subsequent main effects
One of "F" or "cohen", to choose from which random distribution to estimate effect size. (The default is "F". The option, "cohen", refers to Cohen's f-squared values. Values are log-transformed before z-score calculation to assure normally distributed effect sizes.)
A data frame for the function environment, see geomorph.data.frame
A logical value to indicate whether a progress bar should be printed to the screen. This is helpful for long-running analyses.
Arguments passed on to procD.lm.
procD.lm.pgls returns an object of class "procD.lm".
See procD.lm for a description of the list of results generated. Additionally, procD.pgls provides
the phylogenetic correction matrix, Pcor, plus "pgls" adjusted coefficients, fitted values, residuals, and mean.
The function performs ANOVA and regression models in a phylogenetic context under a Brownian motion model of evolution,
in a manner that can accommodate
high-dimensional datasets. The approach is derived from the statistical equivalency between parametric methods
utilizing covariance matrices and methods based on distance matrices (Adams 2014). Data input is specified by
a formula (e.g., y ~ X), where 'y' specifies the response variables (shape data), and 'X' contains one or more
independent variables (discrete or continuous). The response matrix 'Y' can be either in the form of a two-dimensional data
matrix of dimension (n x [p x k]), or a 3D array (p x n x k). It is assumed that the landmarks have previously
been aligned using Generalized Procrustes Analysis (GPA) [e.g., with gpagen].
Linear model fits (using the lm function)
can also be input in place of a formula. Arguments for lm can also be passed on via this function.
The user must also specify a phylogeny describing the evolutionary relationships among species (of class phylo).
Note that the specimen labels for both X and Y must match the labels on the tips of the phylogeny.
The function two.d.array can be used to obtain a two-dimensional data matrix from a 3D array of landmark
coordinates; however this step is no longer necessary, as procD.lm can receive 3D arrays as dependent variables. It is also
recommended that geomorph.data.frame is used to create and input a data frame. This will reduce problems caused
by conflicts between the global and function environments. In the absence of a specified data frame, procD.pgls will attempt to
coerce input data into a data frame, but success is not guaranteed.
From the phylogeny, a phylogenetic transformation matrix is obtained under a Brownian motion model, and used to transform the X and Y variables. Next, the Gower-centered distance matrix is obtained from predicted values from the model (Y ~ X), from which sums-of-squares, F-ratios, and R-squared are estimated for each factor in the model (see Adams, 2014). Data are then permuted across the tips of the phylogeny, and all estimates of statistical values are obtained for the permuted data, which are compared to the observed value to assess significance. This approach has been shown to have appropriate type I error rates (Adams and Collyer 2018), whereas an alternative procedure for phylogenetic regression of morphometric shape data displays elevated type I error rates (see Adams and Collyer 2015).
Effect-sizes (Z scores) are computed as standard deviates of either the F or Cohen's f-squared sampling distributions generated, which might be more intuitive for P-values than F-values (see Collyer et al. 2015). Values from these distributions are log-transformed prior to effect size estimation, to assure normally distributed data. The SS type will influence how Cohen's f-squared values are calculated. Cohen's f-squared values are based on partial eta-squared values that can be calculated sequentially or marginally, as with SS.
In the case that multiple factor or factor-covariate interactions are used in the model formula, one can specify whether all main effects should be added to the model first, or interactions should precede subsequent main effects (i.e., Y ~ a + b + c + a:b + ..., or Y ~ a + b + a:b + c + ..., respectively.)
The generic functions, print, summary, and plot all work with procD.pgls.
The generic function, plot, produces diagnostic plots for Procrustes residuals of the linear fit.
Compared to previous versions, GLS computations in random permutations require RRPP (Adams and Collyer 2018). Thus,
full randomization is no longer permitted with this function. This function uses procD.lm, after calculating
a phylogenetic covariance matrix, and with the constraint of RRPP. If alternative covariance matrices or permutation methods
are preferred, one can use procD.lm, which has greater flexibility.
Compared to previous versions of geomorph, users might notice differences in effect sizes. Previous versions used z-scores calculated with expected values of statistics from null hypotheses (sensu Collyer et al. 2015); however Adams and Collyer (2016) showed that expected values for some statistics can vary with sample size and variable number, and recommended finding the expected value, empirically, as the mean from the set of random outcomes. Geomorph 3.0.4 and subsequent versions now center z-scores on their empirically estimated expected values and where appropriate, log-transform values to assure statistics are normally distributed. This can result in negative effect sizes, when statistics are smaller than expected compared to the average random outcome. For ANOVA-based functions, the option to choose among different statistics to measure effect size is now a function argument.
