Lecture #10

 

1. Two-way fixed-effects, factorial design (Sections 9.1-9.4 in Kirk)

Factorial Design-- a design in which levels of two or more treatments occur together in the same design.

Completely crossed factorial design (or CRF) -- a design in which each and every combination of all levels of all treatments occur together in the same design.

Notational system:

 

Treatments or Factors or Independent Variables:

A

F

G

Conditions or levels within each treatment

Treatment effects associated with factors

S is used to denote blocks or samples of subjects (experimental units).

N is used to denote the total sample size.

n denotes the number of subjects per cell or subgroup.

 

The foundation for a factorial design is the CR design with additional factor(s) or independent variable(s).

Triplets of null/alternative hypotheses, alpha level (familywise), critical regions, F-tests, and decisions.

Box, Hunter, and Hunter (1978) proved that all three F-tests are orthogonal to each other under null hypothesis; hence, three F-tests are also independent from each other.

The underlying mathematical model is as follows:

 

2. Introduction to Interaction Effect in Two-Way Factorial Design

--How to graph the cell means to reflect the presence (or absence) of a significant interaction effect--p. 369 data.

--How to interpret the significant interaction effect in light of a graph-- the exercise with a 3 by 3 factorial design based on school attendance records of Elementary, Junior High, and Senior High School students from three ethnic backgrounds.

 

3. Analysis of a two-way problem (based on p. 369 data)

--Three null hypotheses corresponding to the column effect, the row effect, and the interaction effect.

--Three familywise alpha levels, each set for testing a separate null hypothesis.

--Three F-ratios with degrees of freedom derived from columns, rows, and the two combined.

--Three decisions to make following the rejection or retention of the null hypothesis.

 

To analyze a two-way analysis of variance problem, follow the syntax below:

PROC GLM DATA=data_set_name;
CLASS a b;

MODEL score=a b a*b;

MEANS a b a*b/SIDAK TUKEY;
