How do I write sum of squares and degrees of freedom for multiple Latin squares put together?
I have notes from my professor in which a Latin square model ($s$ treatments in an $s \times s$ square) is described as follows:
\begin{align*}
Y_{ijk} &= \mu + \alpha_i + \beta_j + \gamma_k + \...

How can I test whether an individual treatment mean significant or not?
Suppose by complete randomization design, I reach into a decision that there is at least difference between two treatment means. That is, my hypothesis is
$$H_o:\mu_1=\mu_2=\mu_3=\mu_4=\mu_5$$
$$...

Do the different levels of treatment in a completely randomized design come from different population?
Suppose in a completely randomized design , a treatment A have four levels. When we check whether the means of four levels are statistically significant ,i.e.,
$$H_0:\mu_1=\mu_2=\mu_3=\mu_4$$

Is Randomized Complete Block Design a two-way anova?
Isn't Randomized Complete Block Design a two-way anova ? Can it be one-way ?
As far i understand, since there is treatment effect and also block effect in RCBD, it is two-way anova.
But can it be ...

What is the difference between "Unweighted", "Weighted" and "Least Squares" Means?
These concepts have always confused me. In terms of DOE, I think the problem arises when the design is "unbalanced". So,
what are their differences?
Why do you choose one over the other/reasons?
