Abstract

In this chapter, we will study the introductory model of experimental design, which is the independent single-factor plan. Experiments are a powerful research method commonly used across many fields of study to verify whether theories or hypotheses are correct or not.

Notes

  1. 1.

    For example, if there are three levels of the factor “industry” such as “primary”, “secondary”, and “tertiary”, and the population ratios in that region are 0.4, 0.3, 0.3, then \(\mu =0.4 \times \mu _{\text {primary}}+0.3 \times \mu _{\text {secondary}}+0.3 \times \mu _{\text {tertiary}}\). In this case, even if the number of data points per level does not proportionally reflect the population ratios, it is acceptable to use weights that reflect the population ratios.
