ADVANTAGES OF THE FACTORIAL DESIGN Some experiments are designed so that two or more treatments (independent variables) are explored simultaneously. Such experimental designs are referred to as factorial designs. In factorial designs‚ every level of each treatment is studied under the conditions of every level of all other treatments. Factorial designs can be arranged such that three‚ four‚ or n treatments or independent variables are studied simultaneously in the same experiment. If two independent

Natural observation occurs when researchers observe participants in their natural setting. When researchers use natural observation they do not change the environment the participants are in and the researchers do nothing to change the behavior of the participants. Natural observation is used when researchers are looking for a particular behavior but this can be a very time consuming method of research. The researcher has no guarantee that he or she will witness the particular behavior he or she

primary hypothesis of interest. The desired result is to have homogeneous experimental units within each block so that when the blocking effect is removed (through modeling)‚ all individuals can be considered homogeneous before receiving the treatments. The term randomized complete block design usually refers to a design where there is a single fixed factor of interest and a single random blocking effect. The number of experimental units in each block is such that within each block each of the treatments
