...sorry, i was slow to grasp that. of course it is the same as for other stratified sampling designs where i have to care for not to mix values of possibly very different ranges when doing a permutation test.. if i've got it right, staying with the before-after design, this should give 2^n possib

Hi Kay, I meant to make permutations within time points, i.e. strata=time, and not within locations (strate=locations). adonis do F-tests based on sequential sums of squares from permutations, thus the non independence of repeated measures can have an effect on p-values associated with terms subseq

hello peter, thanks for replying. if we stay with the before after design, where i only want to know whether multivariate response changed or not, you say it's ok to restrict permutations on pairs. but then why it does not solve the problem of dependence? yours, kay - -

Interesting that you ask; I was currently thinking about the same thing. Once a reviewer required us to do a Doubly Repeated Measures ANOVA "Doubly because the multiple variables and the repeated measures parts are both multivariate dimensions." At the time, I did not find how to do it in R, and

Kay, using strata (restricting permutations within time points, and not within locations) in adonis makes some sense, given that permutation tests assume independence. But that does not solve the problem of dependence, but it is a good starter. If you have a before-after control-treatment design,

dear list, i searched though the archives and the question of repeated measure analysis with species data was often brought up but, as far as i found, never clearly worked out. if i have, say two time points at wich i sampled replicated plots and thus had replicated paired mutivariate obervation
