Lecture 1 · Lesson 1: Design and Analysis of Experiment · Definition 1.1

Planning an experiment to obtain appropriate data and drawing inference out of the data with respect to any problem under investigation is known as design and analysis of experiment.

Terminologies

Definition 1.2

EXPERIMENT: An experiment deliberately imposes a treatment on a group of objects or subjects in the interest of observing the response.

Definition 1.3

EXPERIMENTAL UNIT: The experimental unit is the basic entity or unit on which the experiment is performed. It is an object to which the treatment is applied and in which the variable under investigation is measured and analyzed. For example, experimental unit may be: a single person, animal, plant, manufactured item, or country that belongs to a larger collection of such entities being studied.
