Evaluating Popular Statistical Properties of Incomplete Block Designs: A MATLAB Program Approach [PDF]
Evaluating the statistical properties of a semi-Latin square, and in general, an incomplete block design, is vital in determining the usefulness of the design for experimentation.

The Balanced Incomplete Block Designs (BIBD) plays a major role in the design of experiments, particularly in agricultural experiments. In an intra-block analysis of BIBD, the practical situations are not measurable the exact observations due to a shortage of experimental apparatus or facilities and the physical size of the block. In such circumstances,

Incomplete Block Designs for Genetic Testing: Statistical Efficiencies with Missing Observations [PDF]
Abstract Missing observations are common in forest genetic field trials and are expected to reduce statistical efficiencies of any applied field designs. Such reductions could lower the presumed efficiency and other benefits of implementing any incomplete block designs (ICBs).

A call to action to address critical flaws and bias in laboratory animal experiments and preclinical research [PDF]
During the design of hypothesis-driven, comparative laboratory animal experiments, investigators must control for cage effects, ensure full blinding and full randomization while adhering to established experimental designs, notably variations of the ...

Prior to any census, the country usually gets demarcated into small geographic units called census enumeration areas, districts or blocks. In most countries, these small geographic units are also used for census dissemination. In cases where they are not used for census release, they are normally used as building blocks for developing output areas or ...

The impact of randomization techniques on the performance of pre-post design models [PDF]
Pre-post designs are widely used in clinical trials and experimental studies to assess the effectiveness of treatments. Common statistical methods for analyzing pre-post data include analysis of variance (ANOVA) using post-treatment or the change from ...

Inhalation-modulated detection of olfactory BOLD responses in the human brain
IntroductionIn contrast to other sensory domains, detection of primary olfactory processes using functional magnetic resonance imaging has proven to be notably challenging with conventional block designs.
