Abstract:

The one and two-way classification models with a covariant have been treated from many points of view. However the question of the covariate regression parameter changing from block to block has not been treated so extensively. That such changes might occur is certainly logical. Granting that yield might increase linearly with, say, temperature, it would not be at all surprising to find certain blocks, perhaps materials, to be more responsive to temperature than other blocks.
