Introduction


  • Good experimental design generates information-rich data with a clear message.

Essential Features of a Comparative Experiment


  • The raw ingredients of comparative experiments are experimental units, treatments and responses.

Experimental Design Principles


  • Replication, randomization and blocking determine the validity and usefulness of an experiment.

Statistics in Data Analysis


  • Plotting and significance testing describe patterns in the data and quantify effects against random variation.

Completely Randomized Designs


  • CRD is a simple design that can be used when experimental are homogeneous.
