Efficient crossover designs for comparing test treatments with a control treatment when p = 3
نویسنده
چکیده
Efficient crossover designs for comparing t test treatments to one control treatment with three periods is considered. Through this investigation and the characterization obtained for the A-optimal/efficient designs in the nearly entire class, the efficiency of a given design is evaluated and guidance for constructing highly efficient designs is provided.

Optimal and Efficient Crossover Designs for Test-Control Study When Subject Effects Are Random
We study crossover designs based on the criteria of A-optimality and MV-optimality under the model with random subject effects, for the purpose of comparing several test treatments with a standard control treatment. Optimal and efficient designs are proposed, and their efficiencies are also evaluated. A family of totally balanced test-control incomplete crossover designs based on a function of ...
متن کاملOptimal and efficient crossover designs for comparing test treatments to a control treatment under various models
We study the optimality, efficiency, and robustness of crossover designs for comparing several test treatments to a control treatment. Since A-optimality is a natural criterion in this context, we establish lower bounds for the trace of the inverse of the information matrix for the test treatments versus control comparisons under various models. These bounds are then used to obtain lower bounds...
متن کاملEfficient crossover designs for comparing test treatments with a control treatment
Within a large family of crossover designs this paper characterizes the mathematical structures of A-optimal and A-efficient crossover designs for the purpose of statistical comparison between t experimental treatments with a control (standard) treatment. It further guides the user how to go about the construction of these designs and if needed doing the last minute modifications. To demonstrat...
متن کاملEfficient designs for one-sided comparisons of two or three treatments with a control in a one-way layout
The problem of providing lower confidence bounds for the mean improvements of p ≥ 2 test treatments over a control treatment is considered. The expected average and expected maximum allowances are two criteria for comparing different systems of confidence intervals or bounds. In this paper, lower bounds are derived for the expected average allowance and the expected maximum allowance of Dunnett...
متن کاملA Comparison of Within-Subjects and Between-Subjects Designs in Studies with Discrete-Time Survival Outcomes
Crossover designs are well-known to have major advantages when comparing the effects of various non-curative treatments. We compare efficiencies of several crossover designs along with the Balaam’s design with that of a parallel group design pertaining to longitudinal studies where event time can only be measured in discrete time intervals. With equally sized sequences, the parallel group desig...
