Cause and Correlation in Biology
Many problems in biology require an understanding of the relationships among variables in a multivariate causal context. This completely revised and updated edition features detailed explanations for carrying out statistical methods using the popular and freely available R statistical language. Exploring such cause-effect relationships through a series of statistical methods, this book explains how to test causal hypotheses when randomised experiments cannot be performed.
Written for biologists and using a minimum of statistical jargon, the concept of testing multivariate causal hypotheses using structural equations and path analysis is demystified. Sections on d-sep tests, latent constructs that are common in biology, missing values, phylogenetic constraints, and multilevel models are also an important feature of this new edition. Assuming only a basic understanding of statistical analysis, this new edition is a valuable resource for both students and practising biologists.
