A More Complex ANCOVA: Two Factors and One Continuous Covariate
The following experiment, with Weight as the response variable, involved Genotype and Sex as two categorical explanatory variables and Age as a continuous covariate. There are six levels of Genotype and two levels of Sex.
Gain <-read.table("c:\\temp\\Gain.txt",header=T) attach(Gain) names(Gain) [1] "Weight" "Sex" "Age" "Genotype" "Score"
We begin by fitting the maximal model with its 24 parameters: different slopes and intercepts for every combination of Sex and Genotype.
m1<-lm(Weight~Sex*Age*Genotype) summary(m1)
