问题描述
我有一个关于 R 的问题.
I have a question about R.
我正在使用名为 levene.test 的测试来测试方差的同质性.
I am using a test called levene.test to test a homogeneity of variance.
我知道您需要一个至少具有两个级别的因子变量才能使其发挥作用.从我所见，我使用的因子变量至少有两个级别.但不知何故，我不断收到以下错误:
I know that you need a factor variable with at least two levels in order for this to work. And from what I see, I do have at least two levels for the factor variable that I am using. But somehow I keep getting the error of:
> nocorlevene <- levene.test(geno1rs11809462$SIF1, geno1rs11809462$k, correction.method = "correction.factor")
Error in `contrasts<-`(`*tmp*`, value = contr.funs[1 + isOF[nn]]) :
contrasts can be applied only to factors with 2 or more levels
我什至尝试从二项分布中生成一个变量:
I even try generate a variable from a binomial distribution:
k<-rbinom(1304, 1, 0.5)
然后将其用作一个因素，但仍然无效.
and then use that as a factor, but is still not working.
最后，我创建了一个具有 3 个级别的变量:
Lastly I create a variable with 3 levels:
k<-sample(c(1,0,2), 1304, replace=T)
但有些仍然无法正常工作并出现以下错误:
but some how still not working and getting the same error of:
nocorlevene <- levene.test(geno1rs11809462$SIF1, geno1rs11809462$k, Correction.method="zero.removal")
Error in `contrasts<-`(`*tmp*`, value = contr.funs[1 + isOF[nn]]) :
contrasts can be applied only to factors with 2 or more levels
这是数据中变量类型的输出:
This is the output of the type of the variable in the data:

'data.frame': 1304 obs. of 16 variables:

如您所见，变量 k、sex 分别有 3 和 2 个级别，但不知何故我仍然收到该错误消息.
As you can see the variable k, sex have 3 and 2 levels respectively but somehow I still get that error message.

如果有人能给我一些关于为什么会发生这种情况的提示，那就太好了.我只是不知道为什么在我运行测试时变量 k 或性别或具有不同的级别会给我错误.
If anyone can give me some hints as to why this is happening, it would be great. I just don't know why the variable k or sex or having different levels are giving me error when I run the test.
谢谢
推荐答案
我想我可能已经解决了这个问题.我相信这是由于数据中的 NA 值.因为在我使用 say
I think I may have solved the problem. I believe it is due to NA value in the data. Because after I removed the na using say
x<-na.omit(original_data)
然后对 x 应用 levene 测试，警告消息消失.
then apply the levene test on x, the warning message disappears.
希望这是问题的原因.
