Hi Chris,
Recently i analysed 16 crested ibis from hatch to 3 years old, then i wondering if the home range area and diffusion rate has difference among ages (1st-year, 2nd-year, 3rd-year). Your newly paper "Population-level inference for home-range areas" in MEE seems provide an appropriate way to realize my work.
Now i have some problems about the output results (see below )from meta function.
1. You recommended estimation of effect sizes rather than significance tests when comparing populaitons, but i found the p value and CI in the results, which value should i choose, or considering them both to analyse? and P value < 0.05 means significant?
2. In the ratio CI part, the ratio means Likelyhood ratio test? I guess the right top in matrix of results means A > B ratio , and left bottom part means A < B ratio ? I can choose either of them.
3. Actually i'm unfamiliar with the effect size and CI estimation, in the mean (low - high) form, Can I understand that if there excluded 1 in low to high intervals, it means significant?
Thank you
