Thankyou very much Jari! I think that it is nearly ok what I would like to have is the same as in RsquareAdj(vegan::rda(yy,xx))
that is a GLOBAL measure of the association BUT...I want it for a multiple-multivariate lm model that does not include the intercept; an alternative could be to build a rda design for the exclusion of intercept but I really cannot figure out how to do it. I think I just need to compute the average of single adjusted r squared from the output of your line of code, But the results are not identical EXAMPLE WITH INTERCEPT IN ORDER TO COMPARE WITH RDA RsquareAdj(vegan::rda(yy,xx)) mean(sapply(summary(lm(yy~xx)), function(x) c("r.squared" = x$r.squared, "adj.r.squared" = x$adj.r.squared))[2,]) Or.... I just miss something in this computation Thanks again for any further suggestion ________________________________________ Da: Jari Oksanen <jari.oksa...@oulu.fi> Inviato: giovedì 3 ottobre 2013 14.25 A: Paolo Piras; r-sig-ecology@r-project.org Oggetto: RE: [R-sig-eco] vegan RsquareAdj() for lm models Specific reason is that nobody has implemented this. These things don't come by automatic writing, but somebody must do them. What would you expect to get? Is this what was on your mind: > sapply(summary(lm(yy~xx-1)), function(x) c("r.squared" = x$r.squared, > "adj.r.squared" = x$adj.r.squared)) Response Y1 Response Y2 Response Y3 Response Y4 r.squared 0.06845032 0.04788037 0.01702738 0.11253059 adj.r.squared -0.01255400 -0.03491264 -0.06844849 0.03535934 This could be implemented, but (1) is this what you or anybody else would like to have?, (2) how many things would it break by returning several values instead of one? If you want to have this, you really do not need to use vegan. vegan:::RsquareAdj.lm() takes its results from summary(<lm_object>). You can use that stats:::summary.lm directly.

For example: library(vegan) yy<-matrix(rnorm(200,0,1),ncol=4) xx<-matrix(rnorm(200,0,1),ncol=4) RsquareAdj(lm(yy~xx-1)) RsquareAdj(lm(yy[,1]~xx-1)) There some specific reason for this behavior?
