Consider the following statements :

(1) In Resolution-III designs main effects are aliased with two-factor interactions.
(2) In Resolution-IV designs, two-factor interactions are aliased with each other.
(3) In Resolution-V designs two-factor interactions cannot be aliased with three-factor interactions.

Which of the above statements are correct ?

  • A.1 and 2 are correct
  • B.1 and 3 are correct
  • C.2 and 3 are correct
  • D.All are correct

Answer: A

Statements 1 and 2 are correct.

The resolution of a fractional factorial is the length of the shortest word in its defining relation. In a Resolution III design, main effects are not aliased with one another but are aliased with two-factor interactions (1). In Resolution IV, main effects are clear of two-factor interactions, but two-factor interactions are aliased with each other (2).

Statement 3 is false. In a Resolution V design no main effect or two-factor interaction is aliased with another of these, but two-factor interactions are aliased with three-factor interactions. A word of length 5, such as ABCDE, links AB with CDE. So the codes including 3 are wrong.
