Abstract: | The alternative ways of defining balance in experimental designs, e.g. variance, efficiency, and X-1balance are discussed, A condition is derived for a design to estimate the given set of contrasts with specified variances and covariances. This condition is based upon the C-matrix of block designs. The usefulness of the results presented in the construction of designs is discussed with the help of examples. |
