Question
(6 points) For each experiment below, choose a design that seems most appropriate and write a few sentences describing your proposed design : Completely Randomized Design, Cross-Over Design, Block Design 2· a) You want to compare 5 formulations of RootsTM fertilizer on the growth of seedling pines growing in a plot of a reforestation project. The plot is irrigated, water flowing in from one side of the plot b) Is the right hand generally stronger than the left hand? Strength is measured by a calibrated hand-grip recording pounds of force. Forty subjects are available.Explanation / Answer
a) Ans: Here, all the observations are randomly assigned to 5 formulations of roots of RootsTM on the growth of seeding pines growing in a plot of a reforestation project without any variation other than 5 formulations of roots of RootsTM. Hence, the most appropriate design is completely randomized design for this analysis.
b) Similarly, we want to compare the strength of right and left-hand strength. So, the observations are recorded randomly from these forty subjects without any other external influence. Hence, the most appropriate design for this analysis is completely randomized design.
