The document discusses a crossover design involving fluid A and fluid B, analyzed through Latin squares, with specific subjects assigned to each fluid. It also introduces the Graeco-Latin square design, which combines two orthogonal Latin squares, and mentions the Kruskal-Wallis test as a nonparametric alternative for analyzing variance without normality assumptions. The document references statistical methods and analyses from Cochran and Cox, John, and Anderson and McLean.

43 __ The Graeco-Latin Square Design
SN ed
Consider ap p Latin squ:
e. and superimpose on it a second p X p Latin square in which
treatments are denoted by Greek letters. If the two squares when superimposed have the
property that each Greek letter appears once and only once with each Latin letter, the two
Latin squares are said to be orthogonal. and the design obtained is called a Graeco-Latin
square. An example ¥ 4 Gracco-Latin-squate is shown in Table 4.18.RAMPLE a

“The concept of orthogonal pairs of Latin squares forming a Graeco-Latin square can te
extended somewhat. A p % p hypersquare is a design in which three or more orthogocal p *r
Latin squares are superimposed. In general, up to p + 1 factors could be studied if comple st
of p — 1 orthogonal Latin squares is available. Such a design would utilize all (P IXp-D=
p' — 1 degrees of freedom, so an independent estimate of the error variance is necessary. Of
ourse, there must be no interactions between the factors when using hypersquares-the ysis of Variance

-31Ld The Kruskal-Wallis Test
in situations where the normality assumption is unjustified, the experimenter may wish to use
an alternative procedure to the F test analysis of variance that does not depend on this assump-
tion, Such a procedure has been developed by Kruskal and Wallis (1952). The Kruskal-Walii
test is used to test the null hypothesis that the @ treatments are identical against the altemativ:
hypothesis that some of the ireatments generate observations that are Jarger than others. Because
the procedure is designed to be sensitive for testing differences in means. it is sometimes con-
venient to think of the Kruskal-Wallis test as a test for equality of treatment means. The
Kruskal-Wallis test is a nonparametric alternative to the usual analysis of variance.
