Individual control treatment in split-plot experiments. (English) Zbl 1247.62204
Summary: This paper deals with experiments laid out in a complete or an incomplete split-plot design in which one control (standard) treatment occurs in addition to the usual treatments. Usually the control (standard) treatment has been treated as one specific factor level. In this paper, in contrast to others in this area, the control (standard) may not be strictly connected with treatment combinations. The new incomplete split-plot designs with control satisfy all generally accepted methodological requirements, with special reference to the problems of randomisation. Moreover, tools are described which allow checking of the general balance or efficiency of the design, as well as performance of experiments with inference.
