DATA: B. Post (unpublished) DIRECTORY: \CANOCO\SAMPLES\PERMUTIO\PLOUGH PROBLEM: Effect of ploughing time on weeds ILLUSTRATION OF: + analysis of a randomized block experiment + preparation of a data file that defines the design of the experiment + definition of permutation groups (blocks) + unrestricted permutation within blocks + mimicking blocks by a split-plot design _______________________________________________________________________________ FILE TYPE | FILE NAME | DESCRIPTION -------------+---------------+------------------------------------------------- SPECIES | weeds83.dta | 13 weeds in 12 plots of a randomized block | | experiment ENVIRONMENT | factors.dta | blocks and treatments coded by factor levels | bloctime.dta | 7 dummy variables indicating block and treatment | design.dta | as bloctime.dta, but in condensed format PROJECTS | plough.con | test of the effect of the treatment | | (ploughing time) on the weeds by permutation | | within blocks | mimicblc.con | as plough.con without the usage of the block | | indicator variables -------------+---------------+-------------------------------------------------
