Table of Randomized Block Designs
One useful way to look at a randomized block experiment is to consider it as a collection of completely randomized experiments, each run within one of the blocks of the total experiment.
Name of Design | Number of Factors k | Number of Runs n |
---|---|---|
2-factor RBD | 2 | L1 * L2 |
3-factor RBD | 3 | L1 * L2 * L3 |
4-factor RBD | 4 | L1 * L2 * L3 * L4 |
k-factor RBD | k | L1 * L2 * * Lk |
with
- L1 = number of levels (settings) of factor 1
- L2 = number of levels (settings) of factor 2
- L3 = number of levels (settings) of factor 3
- L4 = number of levels (settings) of factor 4
- Lk = number of levels (settings) of factor k

Famous quotes containing the words table, block and/or designs:
“When I think of our lands I think of the house
And the table that holds a platter of pears,
Vermilion smeared over green, arranged for show.”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
“Only he who can view his own past as an abortion sprung from compulsion and need can use it to full advantage in the present. For what one has lived is at best comparable to a beautiful statue which has had all its limbs knocked off in transit, and now yields nothing but the precious block out of which the image of ones future must be hewn.”
—Walter Benjamin (18921940)
“My own thoughts
Are my companions; my designs and labors
And aspirations are my only friends.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (18071882)
