I have performed an experiment where treatment effects have been represented by - sign for decrease in mean brood area in honey bee colony and + sign for increase in brood area in honey bee colony. I tried to performed the arc sine transformation but it didn't work.
thanks in advance
Use binary logistic regression analyses for percentage data.no transformation is required in such cases.
Welcome@ Pradeep Kumar Dalal.Wishing you all the best for your research work.
You may need arcsin transformation when handling proportions. They range 0/1 (or 0/100%, if you want) and may only be positive. Typical example is proportion of dead individuals in one sample.
Percentage data of other kind have broader range and allow negative values (like adult and juvenile population in a honey bee colony). Arcsin transformation is normally not required in this case.
