o chapter 15 -- 15.1 &2 recall ch 13 about 2**p factorial designs with single replicate and blocking - concept: run out of df so confound higher order interactions with blocks (assume negligle) - how? 2**p=(2**s)(2**(p-s)) n=vr=bk EX1: 2**3=(2**1)(2**2) b-1=1 so confound abc EX2: 2**4=(2**2)(2**2) b-1=3 so confound abcd, abd..other?d which block does 1001 go to? o chapter 15 has similar techniques but objective differs - objective: 2**p experiment, r=1 (single replicate), no blocks, but if want full factorial need 2**p so wish to confound (now called alias) effects with each other (still hope/assume high order ints neg) - i cover technique which uses ch.13 - EX: 2**3 on top of handout A:size S,L B:color B,O C:music N,Y (did block on day by confounding abc ) * do this on handout.. each obs to which block? * what is true about abc column in 0 vs. 1 block? * if assume Mon=Tues and wish to do only 4 obs an discuss a,b,c,ab,ac,bc,abc 7 df on n=4, but only n-1=3 df! -DEFN: want a 1/2 - fraction or 1/2 - replicate of our 2**3 called a 2 ** (3-1) design o Building fractional designs - what if i omit 0 block? do it: cross them out * in the 4 obs left what is contrast coefficient of A*B*C (abc)? -DEFN: the effect(s) which has all ones “contrast” is aliased to the mean and we write I=effect(s) and refer to this as the defining relation for the fractional design (the contrast/ effects are called words). - Here: I=ABC note: 1,1..1 is not a contrast A*B*C can not be tested - what other effects are aliased (confounded)? do it: look at remaining compare - see a=bc meaning? note: contrast is like looking at SS, use it and normal plot to find big effects -find: .5A+.5BC so when testing may be asking one of several questions: 1) if sig --> A or BC or both 2) if non --> A and BC neglible or opposite and cancel! - for this reason fractionals often just used to screen upfront o must we rely on contrasts to find alias? one we have defining relation I=ABC, just do letters multiply trick (see p. 460 table 13.28) o what will our experiment look like? 001,010,100,111 the 3 contrasts values are: too few to plot, no MSE - what does the other 1/2 look like? * I=-ABC -DEFN: the resolution of a fractional factorial design is teh number of letters in the shortest word of the defining relation. * EX: I=ABC we write (2**(3-1)) III o Another example add D=light level L,H (see bottom of handout) - how many effects? - if 2**(4-2) how many observations? - recall blocking in ch 13 b= ? k=? block how? confound abcd and abc bad * try abc and abd what else? - assign obs to blocks - pick a block - what is the defining relation? - what is the resolution? - what are the contrast values? - what is your decision?
