Dunnett’s Pairwise Comparisons with a Control 1-Sided Tests: H 0i :  i -  1 = 0 H Ai :  i -  1 > 0 i=2,…,10 Overall Experiment-wise error rate = 0.05 Number of Comparisons = 9 Critical Value (50 Error DF, 9 Comparisons) = 2.49 Std Error of difference in pairs of means =SQRT(60.08(2/6))=SQRT( )=4.48 Minimum Significant Difference = 2.49(4.48) = 11.14

Contrasts and Sums of Squares

Orthogonal Polynomials Coefficients of Dose Means that describe the structure of means in polynomial form: Linear, Quadratic, Cubic,… (up to order g-1=9 for this example) Squared Coefficients Sum to 1 Products of Coefficients Sum to 0 for Different Polynomial Contrasts (Orthogonal) Note: P0 is not a contrast, but is used to get the intercept in regression

Estimated Contrasts, Sums of Squares, ANOVA Based on the F-tests, we will consider the Orders 5 and 3 Polynomials

Fitted Polynomial Regression Model To Obtain the k th order fitted Polynomial, we multiply the estimated “Contrasts” for P 0,...,P k by the corresponding Coefficients of the Contrasts for each Dose. Note that P 0 is not a contrast, but a linear function of the means

3 rd and 5 th Order Polynomials
