Another newbie R question; I have a few models structured similarly to this;
communitymatrix ~ variable1 + variable2 + (1|Random effect)
I want to run a permanova analysis and have structured it like this;
result <- adonis(communitymatrix ~ variable1 + variable2 + (1|Random effect), data = variables, permutations = 999, method = "bray")
which returns this error:
Error in 1 | Random effect : operations are possible only for numeric, logical or complex types
... what does this mean, and how do I fix it? It all works as it should when I remove that component, so have I just coded it wrong?
(data names changed as am unable to share the data)
