Pair-wise Comparison of All
Treatments
H 0 : 1 = 2 = 3 = .... = k vs.
H1 : not H 0
While comparing all treatment means in a single
factor experiment, it may be necessary to compare
each individual treatment mean with each of the
other treatment means using pair-wise comparisons.
The parameters of interest are all pair-wise
differences among the treatment means,
i − j for all i j, resulting in k(k-1)/2 comparisons.
Most frequently, applications of these methods have
an objective to detect significant inequalities, i j
for all i j .

First sort the treatment levels such that the level with the smallest
sample mean is first down to the level with the largest sample mean.
Then in a table (matrix) format, compute the differences for all of the
t(t-1)/2 possible pairs of level means.
