Question: 43. Let c1, c2, . . . , cI be numbers satisfying ci 0. Then ci i c11 cII is called a contrast

43. Let c1, c2, . . . , cI be numbers satisfying ci  0. Then

ci i  c11 cII is called a contrast in the is.

Notice that with c1  1, c2  1, c3 

 cI  0,

ci i  1  2, which implies that every pairwise difference between is is a contrast (so is, e.g., 1  .52  .53). A method attributed to Scheffé gives simultaneous CIs with simultaneous confidence level 100(1  )% for all possible contrasts (an infinite number of them!). The interval for

ci i is

cix i  (c2 i /Ji

)1/2  [(I  1)  MSE  F,I1,nI]1/2 Using the critical flicker frequency data of Exercise 42, calculate the Scheffé intervals for the contrasts 1  2, 1 

3, 2  3, and .51 .52  3 (this last contrast compares blue to the average of brown and green). Which contrasts appear to differ significantly from 0, and why?
