Dear Alexandre,

The Anova function in the car package by default will calculate F-tests (specified by test="F") using a dispersion estimate based on the Pearson residuals. See ?Anova for details.

I hope that this helps,
John

Hi,

I am performing glm with binomial family and my data show slight
overdispersion (HF<1.5). Nevertheless, in order to take into account for
this heterogeneity though weak, I use F-test rather than Chi-square
(Krackow & Tkadlec, 2001). But surprisingly, outputs of this two tests
are exactly similar. What is the reason and how can I scale the output
by overdispersion ??

Thank you,

Alexandre MILLON
