2 Crossover Trials Useful when runs are blocked by human subjects or large animals To increase precision of treatment comparisons all treatments are administered to each subject or animal in a sequence Primary purpose is to compare effect of treatments Secondary purpose is to protect against bias from carryover effects and to estimate carryover effects Used extensively in pharmaceutical research, sensory evaluation of food products, animal feeding trials and psychological research

3 Crossover Designs COD Useful for comparing a limited number of treatments (from 2 to 6) Usually not used for factorial designs (other than simple 2 2 factorial) Since treatments are applied sequentially in time, COD are only useful for comparing temporary treatments of chronic conditions Special designs and models for testing and estimating carryover effects are required

23 · Design choice dependent on assumptions · Assumption of first-order carryover effects · Variance balance as a design criteria - variance (or standard error of difference in direct treatment means or carryover means) is the same regardless of the pair of treatments - this balance is achieved if every treatment is preceded by every treatment

24 A is preceded by B in second group, but never by A B is preceded by A in first group, but never by B B is preceded by A in first group second period and by B in third period A is preceded by B in second group second period and by A in third period

25 Designs for t treatments and p periods where p = t · If no carryover effects are assumed a balanced design for direct treatment effects can be created using any t  t Latin square · If carryover effects are assumed Williams showed a balanced design for direct and carryover treatment effects can be created using one particular t  t Latin square if t is an even number, and two particular Latin squares if t is an odd number

42 The objective is to compare the trend over time in the response between treatment groups.

45 Usual Assumptions of Univariate Model Experimental Error is independent, has equal variance across treatment×time combinations, and is normally distributed with mean zero Similar assumptions for random effects Independence assumption is justified by randomization In Split-Plot Type Experiments, sub-plots are not independent because they are measured within the same whole-plot. Randomization of subplot treatments to subplots equalizes the correlation between all possible pairs of subplots – this creates a condition called compound symmetry, which justifies the normal univariate analysis

46 Usual Assumptions of Univariate Model In repeated measures designs, you can’t randomize levels of time within a subject or cow! Huyuh and Feldt (1970) showed that if σ 2 (yi-yj) = 2λ for i ≠ j (Huyuh-Feldt condition) then univariate analysis is justified. The Mauchly (1940) sphericity test can be used to determine if the Huyuh- Feldt condition holds. This can be performed by proc glm
