Model Reduction with Two Full Factorials: Why You Can't Trust Your First Answer

Learn to interpret designed experiments by moving from raw effect estimates to defensible, statistically sound conclusions. This tutorial provides a clear framework for analyzing your experiment results. We focus on calculating standard error, running key tests, and establishing formal decision rules. Whether you are working with polymer tensile strength or paint adhesion data, this guide helps you apply disciplined model reduction to your research. Designed experiments often generate complex data, but you can simplify your analysis using these proven methods. We walk through the technical steps required to validate your findings so you can move forward with confidence. By the end, you will have a repeatable process for determining which variables actually drive your outcomes.
