Hello,
I've been working on my master's thesis that uses a geometric
morphometric approach to analyzing the human tibia and the expression
of sexual dimorphism. I've previously consulted this forum about
formatting my text files and it has been a wonderful help! After
conducting my analyses, I did not get the results expected and my
advisor wants me to seek other ways I could potentially analyze my
data to cover all my bases and make sure I'm not doing something
wrong. Using MorphoJ, I conducted a Procrustes fit, a principal
components analysis, and a discriminant function analysis. I know
that the Procrustes fit removes size as a factor, but is there a way I
could analyze my data in terms of both size and shape? Or should I be
approaching this differently?
Thank you,
CT
