Classification of models
Linear models for the sample data may broadly be
classified into three types as follows:
1. Random effect model
2. Fixed effect model
3. Mixed effect model
In any variance components model,
the error component has always random effects, since it occurs purely in a
random manner. All other components may be either mixed or random.
Random effect model
A model in which each of the
factors has random effect (including error effect) is called a random effect
model or simply a random model.
Fixed effect model
A model in which each of the
factors has fixed effects, buy only the error effect is random is called a
fixed effect model or simply a fixed model.
Mixed effect model
A model in which some of the
factors have fixed effects and some others have random effects is called a
mixed effect model or simply a mixed model.
In what follows, we shall
restrict ourselves to a fixed effect model. In a fixed effect model, the main
objective is to estimate the effects and find the measure of variability among
each of the factors and finally to
find the variability among the
error effects.
The ANOVA technique is mainly
based on the linear model which depends on the types of data used in the linear
model. There are several types of data in ANOVA, depending on the number of
sources of variation namely,
One-way
classified data, Two-way
classified data, … m-way
classified data. One-way
classified data
When the set of observations is
distributed over different levels of a single factor, then it gives one-way
classified data.
