I have read the R help for the consensusMEDissimilarity function, if I am only interested in positive correlation, the parameter useAbs must be set to TRUE or FALSE?
consensusMEDississimilarity(MEs, useAbs = FALSE, useSets = NULL, method = "consensus")
useAbs: controls whether to use the absolute value of the correlation instead of the correlation in the dissimilarity calculation.
