Estimates of coefficients, standard errors, and significance based on t tests for optimal generalized linear model for variations in antibody titer among seropositive animals
| Comparator | Effect | Estimate | Standard error | t value | p(>|t|) value* |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Intercept | 8.13 | 0.38 | 21.66 | <2 × 10-16 | |
| Autumn | Other | –1.81 | 0.36 | –5.07 | 6.74 × 10-7 |
| Adult | Subadult | 0.47 | 0.34 | 1.37 | 0.17 |
| Adult | Juvenile | –0.76 | 0.52 | –1.46 | 0.15 |
| Not recaptured? | Recaptured | 0.47 | 0.26 | 1.78 | 0.077 |
