Fundamentally, this method is almost mathematically identical to the | ||
<a href="#glm_analysis">Complex/GLM Meta-Analysis</a>. The only difference is in the specification of | ||
the weight matrix \(\boldsymbol{W}\). In the standard GLM analysis, this is an | ||
<em>n</em>×<em>n</em> matrix with the individual study weights on the diagonal and zeros | ||
throughout the rest of the matrix. To adjust an analysis for phylogenetic autocorrelation, the | ||
off-diagonal elements are replaced with estimates of phylogenetic covariance, a value which | ||
represents the shared history of the two taxa represented in a given pair of contrasting studies. | ||
These covariances are estimated from a phylogeny which must be loaded into | ||

<h3>Running a Phylogenetic GLM Meta-Analysis</h3> | ||
<p> | ||
To run a phylogenetic meta-analysis, one must first <a href="#phylogeny_tab">activate the phylogeny | ||
tab and load a phylogeny into memory</a>. Until this step is completed, the Phylogenetic GLM | ||
Meta-Analysis option will remain disabled. | ||
</p> | ||
<p>The options for a Phylogenetic GLM Meta-Analysis are almost identical to those of the | ||
<a href="#glm_analysis">Complex/GLM Meta-Analysis</a>, except for the addition of a box where | ||
the user must specify which data column contains the taxon names. In order for a study to be | ||
included in an analysis, it's taxon must be represented on the pre-loaded phylogeny. If the name | ||
cannot be matched, the study will be excluded. (Note: the reverse is not true; the phylogeny can | ||
contain additional taxonomic names not represented within the studies). Additionally, there is | ||
checkbox to activate including additional variables, but otherwise this works identically as to the | ||
GLM dialog. | ||
<p style="color: red; font-size: 1.25em">Warning: The phylogenetic glm meta-analysis is still experimental | ||
and has some kinks that have not definitively been worked out yet. The help section will be written | ||
out when we are more confident of the results. | ||
</p> | ||

<p> | ||
The additional options include bootstrapping confidence intervals around the mean, as well as a | ||
randomization test for model structure. Graphical output is not an option for the complex/glm | ||
analysis. | ||
