The Model for a Completely Randomized Design where : Observation on j th experimental unit receiving treatmenti : Overall treatment mean, an unknown constant
The Model for a Completely Randomized Design, cont. : An effect due to treatment i, an unknown constant : A random error associated with the response from the j th experimental unit receiving treatment i. We require that the s have a normal distribution with mean 0 and common variance . In addition, the errors must be independent.

Advantages of the Completely Randomized Design • The design is extremely easy to construct. • The design is easy to analyze even though the sample sizes might not be the same for each treatment. • The design can be used for any number of treatments.
Disadvantages of the Completely Randomized Design • Although the completely randomized design can be used for any number of treatments, it is best suited for situations in which there are relatively few treatments. • The experimental units to which treatments are applied must be as homogeneous as possible. Any extraneous sources of variability will tend to inflate the error term, making it more difficult to detect differences among the treatment means.

Randomized Complete Block Design, cont. Table 15.7: Randomized complete block assignment of 4 paints to 16 sections of roadway
Definition A randomized complete block designis an experimental design for comparing t treatments in b blocks. The blocks consist of t homogeneous experimental units. Treatments are randomly assigned to experimental units within a block, with each treatment appearing exactly once in every block.
Advantages of the Randomized Complete Block Design • The design is useful for comparing t treatment means in the presence of a single extraneous source of variability. • The statistical analysis is simple. • The design is easy to construct. • It can be used to accommodate any number of treatments in any number of blocks.
Disadvantages of the Randomized Complete Block Design • Because the experimental units within a block must be homogeneous, the design is best suited for a relatively small number of treatments. • This design controls for only one extraneous source of variability (due to blocks). Additional extraneous sources of variability tend to increase the error term, making it more difficult to detect treatment differences. • The effect of each treatment on the response must be approximately the same from block to block.

Advantages of the Latin Square Design • The design is particularly appropriate for comparing t treatment means in the presence of two sources of extraneous variation. • The analysis is quite simple.
Disadvantages of the Latin Square Design • Although a Latin square can be constructed for any value of t, it is best suited for comparing t treatments when • Any additional extraneous sources of variability tend to inflate the error term, making it more difficult to detect differences among the treatment means. • The effect of each treatment on the response must be approximately the same across rows and columns.
Definition 15.2 A t x tLatin square design contains t rows and t columns. The t treatments are randomly assigned to experimental units within the rows and columns so that each treatment appears in every row and in every column.
Test for Treatment Effects We can test specific hypotheses concerning the parameters in our model. In particular, we may wish to test for differences among the t treatment means.

Definition 15.4 Two factors A and B are said to interact if the difference in mean responses for two levels of one factor is not constant across levels of the second factor.
Profile Plot • See Figure 15.6 • Used to amplify the notion of interaction: when no interaction is present, the difference in the mean response between two levels of one factor is the same for levels of the other factor.
