Competition between neighbouring units in field experiments is a serious source of bias. The study of a competing situation needs construction of an environment in which it can happen and the competing units have to appear in a predetermined pattern. This paper describes methods of constructing incomplete block designs balanced for neighbouring competition effects. The designs obtained are totally balanced in the sense that all the effects, direct and neighbours, are estimated with the same variance. The efficiency of these designs has been computed as compared to a complete block design balanced for neighbours and a catalogue has also been prepared. 相似文献

Experimental designs in which treatments are applied to the experimental units, one at a time, in sequences over a number of periods, have been used in several scientific investigations and are known as repeated measurements designs. Besides direct effects, these designs allow estimation of residual effects of treatments along with adjustment for them. Assuming the existence of first-order residual effects of treatments, Hedayat & Afsarinejad (1975) gave a method of constructing minimal balanced repeated measurements [RM(v,n,p)] design for v treatments using n=2v experimental units for p [=(v+1)/2] periods when v is a prime or prime power. Here, a general method of construction of these designs for all odd v has been given along with an outline for their analysis. In terms of variances of estimated elementary contrasts between treatment effects (direct and residual), these designs are seen to be partially variance balanced based on the circular association scheme. 相似文献
