Dear All,
this is something that, I believe, has already come up in the past. However, I'd like to check it again.

What are the issues with, say, regressing shape on size, saving residuals and using those in further analyses (e.g., other regressions or testing group differences etc.)?

I suspect that all the factors (size, other predictors, groups etc.) should be incorporated in a single model and may have a partial intuition about some of the problems with rerunning, instead, analyses on residuals but I'd be very grateful to know how those with a better understanding of the methods see it.

Thanks in advance.
Cheers

Andrea
