Factorial Expriments
Factorial Expriments
design) explained earlier are called single factor designs. These design
can be extended to study the effect of more than one factors involved
in the experiment.
factorial experiment.
On the other hand, if the effect of one factor changes as the level of the
other factor changes, the factors are said to be dependent and there will be
an interaction between/among them. So, the term interaction can also
define as: “ The dependence of factors in their responses is known as
interaction”.
