Not Important
Blocking
Any time you cannot perform all trials at
approximately the same time, using the same raw
materials, staff, etc., you have introduced a new
source of variability into the experiment.
You need a way to separate this unavoidableand
uninterestingsource of variability from the more
interesting effects of the experimental factors.
The solution is to treat the unavoidable source of
variation as another factor in the experimental
design, and perform the experiment in blocks.
Definition
A block is a carefully chosen subset of the total runs in the
experiment that are tested close together in time or under
similar conditions.
Similar conditions means that factors not being tested in the
experiment are the same or very nearly so (includes factors such as
staffing, physical environment, source materials, etc.).
In the situation discussed on the previous page, you would have to
conduct the experiment in (a) 2 blocks of 8 trials or (b) 4 blocks of 4 trials,
depending on how many trials you can do at the same time.
The experimental runs within a block are performed under the same
conditions; but different blocks encounter different conditions.
If a design is replicated, the replicates can be run in blocks instead of
totally randomized.
If a design is not replicated, the trials can still be run in blocks; the cost is
increased confounding (the Minitab menu will select a blocked design for
9 you with the least confounding possible).

Block
If none of the block effects are judged to be important, you can drop the blocking
factor from the analysis without biasing the conclusions about other factors. (We
assume that
the interactions confounded with the block effects are also negligible.)

Observations
This is a two stage nested design and the batches nested with
supplier, because the batch 1 of supplier 1 is not same of any other
supplier.
