This reproducible R Markdown analysis was created with workflowr (version 1.6.1). The Checks tab describes the reproducibility checks that were applied when the results were created. The Past versions tab lists the development history.


Great! Since the R Markdown file has been committed to the Git repository, you know the exact version of the code that produced these results.

Great job! The global environment was empty. Objects defined in the global environment can affect the analysis in your R Markdown file in unknown ways. For reproduciblity it’s best to always run the code in an empty environment.

The command set.seed(20191017) was run prior to running the code in the R Markdown file. Setting a seed ensures that any results that rely on randomness, e.g. subsampling or permutations, are reproducible.

Great job! Recording the operating system, R version, and package versions is critical for reproducibility.

Nice! There were no cached chunks for this analysis, so you can be confident that you successfully produced the results during this run.

Great job! Using relative paths to the files within your workflowr project makes it easier to run your code on other machines.

Great! You are using Git for version control. Tracking code development and connecting the code version to the results is critical for reproducibility.

The results in this page were generated with repository version 6c7445f. See the Past versions tab to see a history of the changes made to the R Markdown and HTML files.

Note that you need to be careful to ensure that all relevant files for the analysis have been committed to Git prior to generating the results (you can use wflow_publish or wflow_git_commit). workflowr only checks the R Markdown file, but you know if there are other scripts or data files that it depends on. Below is the status of the Git repository when the results were generated:

Note that any generated files, e.g. HTML, png, CSS, etc., are not included in this status report because it is ok for generated content to have uncommitted changes.

Multinomial model of outcome

Run the models

Fit three different multinomial logisitic models, with 3 possible outcomes describing what happened to each bee introduced to the hive: stayed inside, left voluntarily, or forced out by the other workers.

Samples were drawn using sampling(NUTS). For each parameter, Bulk_ESS
and Tail_ESS are effective sample size measures, and Rhat is the potential
scale reduction factor on split chains (at convergence, Rhat = 1).

Formatted brms output for Table S1

The code chunk below wrangles the raw output of the summary() function for brms models into a more readable table of results, and also adds ‘Bayesian p-values’ (i.e. the posterior probability that the true effect size has the same sign as the reported effect).


Table S1: Table summarising the posterior estimates of each fixed effect in the best-fitting model of Experiment 1. This was a multinomial model with three possible outcomes (stay inside, leave voluntarily, be forced out), and so there are two parameter estimates for the intercept and for each predictor in the model. ‘Treatment’ is a fixed factor with four levels, and the effects shown here are expressed relative to the ‘Intact control’ group. ‘Hive’ was also a fixed factor with four levels; unlike for treatment, we modelled hive using deviation coding, such that the intercept term represents the mean across all hives (in the intact control treatment), and the three hive terms represent the deviation from this mean for three of the four hives. Lastly, observation duration was a continuous predictor expressed to the nearest minute. The \(p\) column gives the posterior probability that the true effect size is opposite in sign to what is reported in the Estimate column, similarly to a \(p\)-value.

Figure 1: Panel A shows the posterior estimate of the mean % bees staying inside the hive (left), leaving voluntarily (middle), or being forced out (right), for each of the four treatments. The quantile dot plot shows 100 approximately equally likely estimates of the true % bees, and the horizontal bars show the median and the 50% and 95% credible intervals of the posterior distribution. Panel B gives the posterior estimates of the effect size of each treatment, relative to one of the other treatments (the name of which appears in parentheses), and expressed as a log odds ratio (LOR). Positive LOR indicates that the % bees showing this particular outcome is higher in the treatment than the control; for example, more bees left voluntarily (green) or were forced out (orange) in the LPS treatment than in the intact control. The dashed lines mark \(LOR = 0\), indicating no effect, and \(LOR = \pm log(2)\), i.e. the point at which the odds are twice as high in one treatment as the other.

Hypothesis testing and effect sizes

This section calculates the posterior difference in treatment group means, in order to perform some null hypothesis testing, calculate effect size (as a log odds ratio), and calculate the 95% credible intervals on the effect size.

The following code chunks perform planned contrasts between pairs of treatments that we consider important to the biological hypotheses under test. For example the contrast between the LPS treatment and the Ringers treatment provides information about the effect of immmune stimulation, while the Ringers - Intact Control contrast provides information about the effect of wounding in the absence of LPS.

Present all contrasts in one table:

Table S2: This table gives statistics associated with each of the contrasts plotted in Figure 1B. Each pair of rows gives the absolute effect size (i.e. the difference in % bees) and standardised effect size (as log odds ratio; LOR) for the focal treatment, relative to the treatment shown in parentheses, for one of the three possible outcomes (stayed inside, left voluntarily, or forced out). A LOR of \(|log(x)|\) indicates that the outcome is \(x\) times more frequent in one treatment compared to the other, e.g. \(log(2) = 0.69\) and \(log(0.5) = -0.69\) correspond to a two-fold difference in frequency. The \(PP\) column gives the posterior probability that the true effect size has the same sign as is shown in the Estimate column; this metric has a similar interpretation to a one-tailed \(p\) value in frequentist statistics.
