Dear yicaoting,

❝ 1. How to calculate LSM and SE for each Treatment? I want to manually calculate it, can anyone give me some exact equation?

❝ I have read WNL's user guide, it didn't tell me the exact equation. Only reads "(computed by LinMix)," on page 332 of WNL 5.1's User Guide

❝ 2. Why SE of the two treatments are identical?


1. You take the Mean of T in Seq TR and the mean of T in Seq RT. You add them and divide by two. Do the same for R.

2. The crucial variability for a 2,2,2-BE design from which the 90% CI is derived is the residual sigma (which is your [pseudo-]within variability). Since there is no true replication of neither T nor R you cannot derive a within-subject variability separately for T or R. Think of it in matrix terms: Your error matrix is just a bunch of zeros and with the common sigma on the diagonal.

Pass or fail!
